Hard for me to see how this team is going to compete to win the East this year. Martin was as solid a backstop as you can find, granted his line was horrible.

The Front Office is more concerned with padding their pockets with this 2014 deadline approaching, than putting the talent on the field.

I did not like most of the moves The Boss made, but I can say this, the offseason would be a little more substantive if he were still around.

I can't wait to see what the Yankees do at catcher. Gary Sanchez still 3 years away at least, and will likely never see real pinstripes.

The Romine back injury really put the organization behind as far as developing a MLB ready catcher. I think they trade for a low priced catcher or a guy with only a yr left on contract. They are getting below the tax hit line by 14 no matter the product on the field. I don't think the move is about lining their pockets but keeping their money from other organizations.
