The funny thing is, New Yorkers have no clue how dopey they sound when making mock trades for the Yankees. An actual press person has proposed
a "fair" trade that would send
Mike Trout to the Bronx in exchange for a "mish-mash" of six Yankee prospects/re-treads: 1.
Estevan Florial, 2.
Clint Frazier (
or Aaron Hicks), 3.
Justus Sheffield (
or Albert Abreu), 4.
Chance Adams, 5.
Brandon Drury, 6.
Tyler Wade (
or Thairo Estrada). Sure, empty out the closet of Yankee "misfit toys" and—POOF!—here comes Trout! Don't you love the way they give the Angels "options" (Ooooh, Wade or Estrada, so hard to decide!)? Of course,
off-limits are the only players
The Halos would even remotely want in exchange for their franchise chip. You know, players like:
Aaron Judge,
Giancarlo Stanton,
Gleyber Torres,
Miguel Andujar or
Luis Severino. Maybe they could even could throw in
Gary "I Could Never Catch And Now I Can't Hit" Sanchez. We're sure that "sweetener" would do the trick! Classic, clueless, New York.
