Tanaka flying back to NY for an MRI
What do the Yankees have to offer? Gary Sanchez is nowhere near Baez, Russell, Alcantara, and especially Castro. Plus, they have Schwarber as a future catcher if that's where the organization wants him.
The Yankees can be interested in shortstops in the best system in baseball all they want, but I just don't see the Cubs and Yankees as logical trade partners.
Like I said earlier...Lance or bust and it sucks (or blows, depending on how one evaluates such things).
As much as I hate admitting this, but, the Cubs have leverage over the Yankees, when it comes to Starlin Castro. I can easily see them, asking for a 1st rounder.

Source close to Carmelo Anthony insists "there is no decision yet." Adds "still up in the air."
Might as well kill two birds with one stone. The Cubs aren't trading Castro and the Wolves aren't trading Love.
The Wolves should trade Love though since he has strongly intimated his lack of desire of re-signing and each and every day that passes reduces Minnesota's leverage.

Within Anthony's circle, belief's been this, sources tell Y: Get NY's $129M now, figure out destination later. You can always get a trade.
Hahaha.
So he would sign and then immediately hold out demanding a sign and trade after the fact? Or play a season or two and demand a trade then?
This max money only possibly being offered by your current team thing is pretty odd to me. Is there any reason for how unnecessarily complicated and stupid NBA's free agency rules and salary cap are other than it obscures how much profit NBA owners are taking home while forcing players to choose between contending for a championship and actually getting a salary equivalent to their market value?
Its so teams can keep their best players. If the NHL had this, the Blackhawks would have a dynasty.
They should, but Flip needs to protect his neck. They turned down Klay, Barnes, and Lee.
They do. NHL teams can offer 1 more year on a contract, it's the same rule.
