At the beginning of the winter meetings New York Yankees general manager, Brian Cashman commented on a potential Manny Machado deal, stating that he would not be willing to surpass the $200 million mark for the superstar free agent’s services.
Fast forward several weeks and Cashman had spent about $150 million retaining Zac(k) Britton and J.A. Happ, while adding Troy Tulowitzki, DJ LeMahieu, James Paxton, and Adam Ottavino to the team. That’s six influential players that will make an impact on the 2019 season for the Bombers. But, my question is – did Cashman choose quantity over quality?
