Just a quick note as things are floating around out there right between the Christmas and New Years holidays and it's important to talk about. When it comes to Estevan Florial... it looks like this guy is a goner when it comes to his time with the Yankees. I feel bad for this dude. He was hanging on, dedicated and doing what he needed to do to stay with the club, but it's my opinion that the Yankees front office just didn't like the guy. It wasn't that Florial couldn't hang, it's just that Florial was never considered part of the Yankee outfield and so, it was time to trade him and they did.
Fansided writes:
"...the Yankees shipped Florial to Cleveland in exchange for starter/reliever Cody Morris. "And so Florial will find new life in Cleveland and I wish this guy well. As for Cody Morris, this is what we can say about him, brought to us by big dog Pete Caldera:
"In Morris, 27, the Yankees receive a former seventh-round draft pick (2018) who has compiled a 3.41 ERA over 13 MLB appearances (five starts) with 32 strikeouts, 18 walks and six homers allowed in 31.2 innings.
Last season, Morris made six relief appearances for Cleveland, yielding six runs in eight innings.
Morris made one appearance against the Yankees during the 2022 AL Division Series, tossing two scoreless innings in Game 4 at Cleveland."
And just like that the Yankees will try and stockpile arms and try and make us all forget that we didn't score Yamamoto. But of course... we won't.
I wish Florial the best. I say welcome to Cody Morris.
