The New York Yankees made a blockbuster trade for Juan Soto in December, and now, one of the key pieces of the trade, Michael King, told the New York Post how he feels about the trade that sent him, Kyle Hiagshioka, Randy Vazquez, Jhony Brito, and Drew Thorpe to the Padres. It’s the first time we’ve heard from a former Yankee about the trade, and he had some interesting things to say. Stacey and Steve discuss what King said and whether they agree with King or not regarding his assessment of the trade. Then, it was revealed that the Yankees are, so far, the only team to make an offer to reigning National League Cy Young winner Blake Snell. It was a six-year/$150M but Snell balked because he wanted more years. Stacey and Steve discuss Snell and the possible factors behind the lack of offers. Could his walk rate be to blame or is it something else? And the Yankees made some minor moves to the 40-man roster and it was revealed that the road gray uniforms are changing for the first time in fifty years. Is the change big enough for Steve who famously dislikes road grays? Find out.
