The Yankees better not be using Giancarlo Stanton’s contract as an excuse to stand pat.

The New York Yankees’ offseason silence is deafening and just about everyone is becoming fed up with it. Trading for Greg Allen and signing Jhoulys Chacin, Socrates Brito and Adam Warren really isn’t going to get anybody excited. Minor league depth? Yeah, nobody cares.

Just look at how enraged people were after the New York Mets traded for Francisco Lindor, who wasn’t even a primary target for the Yankees!
