That bullpen is insane.

Lot of talk about the Yankees being cheap. This is a good move.

What? Since when? Who's ever called them cheap? Just because they don't want to give mega contracts to Harper and Machado who they don't need/have room for?

Still out round 1 at best.

I think a lot of this is future proofing. Chapman and Betances might both be free agents next winter. Load up the pen for one year then maybe let Chapman walk.

Agree. Betances is UFA and Chapman has an opt out after this season.

At least 1 of them will be re-signed imo. Probably Betances.
