I expect to win the World Series next season... the Yankees got Socrates Brito. All good. Order the ticker tape parade now! Woo Hoo!
Hey Cashman, we need DJ LeMahieu.... make that happen instead.
In case you live under a rock, and I guess even if you didn't, news slipped out on the Yanks signing Brito. It's a minor league deal. MLB Trade Rumors writes:
"He’ll now join a Yankees club that has seen plenty of outfield injuries over the past couple of seasons, which could afford him another opportunity in the big leagues. Brito has spent parts of four seasons in the Majors between Arizona and Toronto, but he’s yet to replicate the solid production he posted in his first cup of coffee when he batted .303/.324/.455 in 18 games with the 2015 D-backs. Brito carries just a .525 OPS in 218 Major League plate appearances, but he’s notched a much more impressive .297/.345/.491 batting line in 1541 plate appearances at the Triple-A level."And so there you have it. No one's excited about this deal... except Brito.
Meanwhile... DJ is still waiting for the Yankees to do the right thing.
