The New York Yankees are being mentioned along with Shohei Ohtani, but not for a good reason. An article by Jeff Passan from ESPN (linked below) discussed the Yankees' hesitation in even trying for Ohtani. Is this a good thing or a bad thing? Spoiler alert: It’s not great! They’re the Yankees. Stacey and Steve discussed the report and talked about how not trying for a big free agent is worse than trying and failing. Let us know below if you agree. Then, our friends at Locked On Rays brought up a possible trade idea that would send Kyle Higashioka to the Rays in a rare intra-division trade. Stacey and Steve go through the logjam at catcher and discuss what Higgy could bring to the Rays in a possible trade. Plus, what would your ideal catching rotation be? Right now, the Yankees are chock-full of them.
