This rumor has been going on for nearly 18 hours now and there hasn't been movement other than to say that the Mets like JT Realmuto, the Yankees apparently want Noah Syndergaard and the Yanks are willing to supply someone for one of those 2 teams... not to mention there will be other moving parts as well.
I've even put in a call to my bud with the Yankees and he indicated that the idea of a Starlin Castro reunion with the Yanks was even thrown out there at one point. But now comes word of another name... Miguel Andujar. And let me tell you all something very important about this... if this is the name to get a blockbuster deal like this done and it's a win, win, win for everyone... you trade Miggy away and that sweetens the deal. It sweetens the deal in what you get in return, and it makes your trade partner very, very happy... especially if it improves each team.
Hardball Talk writes:
"Into that mix comes something interesting: Ken Rosenthal reports that the Yankees are open to moving third baseman Miguel Andujar and that he’s “a name to watch.” Coming as it does after that Yankees-Mets-Marlins chatter might mean that Andujar could be involved in all of that and, if he is, that could make for a monster deal. Such a blockbuster would certainly be a good enough reason to part with Andujar despite a strong rookie season in which he hit.297/.328/.527 with 27 homers and 92 RBI.
Worth noting that moving him could also open up third base for a big acquisition like Manny Machado, but that’s separate speculation, I suppose."

A lot of hurry up and wait, but I suspect ones this move happens, IF it happens... the rest will follow very quickly. Don't blink, you might miss it.
