Observation – It’s no big secret that the Yankees came off short with the Russell Martin departure. Cervelli is not the long term answer and Gary Sanchez is, at least, a year away.

In addition, the Yankees like having a veteran catcher handling their head cases on the mound. This team is a perfect fit for a long term contract for Buck.

Now, all you have to do is get the Yanks to trade with the Mets. The history is bad here, but this could be the perfect win/win situation between these teams.

There are plenty of outfield and SP prospects here to build a packake. None are 5 star, so you might be able to get two guys for one. I really don’t care which one’s they are, as long as they are healthy.
