Message: [QUOTE="Madbiker, post: 4041323, member: 312"] The concern is if Yankees spend $300M on a SS that will be it and they'll be pinching pennies to not upgrade other positions of need. They need a big upgrade in CF. Great Yankees teams have a great impact CF. Not Hicks/Gardner. Let Hicks be the 4th OF next year and maybe he rebuilds some value to be a trade piece. If they're pinching pennies after a SS you can kiss an upgrade 1B good bye too. They won't spend on bringing back Rizzo. Frankly I'd prefer they sign Starling Marte for CF (high contact, high average, decent power and speed/speed/speed with 40 SBs. Explore a trade for 1b Matt Olson. These 2 alone make a major upgrade to the offense. Then find an under the radar SS to acquire by trade (like they did with Didi) until either Peraza or Volpe come to claim the job. [/QUOTE]
