Yankees/Rangers

[Honorary Member]

New York Yankees receive:

MLB Zach Wheeler (SP/PHL)
MILB Shea Langliers (C/ATL)

Texas Rangers receive:

MILB Hunter Bishop (OF/SF)

I had a dilemma with Springer and Wheeler:  both facing UFA status at the end of the season, and me sitting here, with other players who will have contracts/arbitrations coming due.  There was no way I would be able to compete in the FA market for either of them, if the 2020 bidding season was an indication of what to expect in 2021.

I wanted to get this out of the way before the season started, while I thought I could get decent returns.  Only time will tell if things work out for me.

Thank you Mr. Yankee for getting this done so quickly, and good luck in 2020.

I accept. I lost Sevy already and traded Quintana so Wheeler will be a welcomed addition this year. I probably won’t be able to resign him either next year but I’m hopefully going to compete this year and then reevaluate next year. I have OF depth in the minors and young rostered OF. Bishop has insane power upside imo but hopefully Langliers can continue to make offensive strides and be a solid C for me in the future. Thanks to Texas for trade talks. Good luck to you as well

Please make room on your MiLB roster for Langeliers.

With bishop leaving to go to Texas, Langeliers should just take bishops place
