I wonder if he even wants to play for NY. I think he is better than .400 era since leaving the Yankees and getting better advice from non Yankee pitching coaches. I do agree that he will sign for a good deal less than the Nola contract. Maybe 6 years 100-110?
I think he could have had a bigger contract than 6/90 earlier in the offseason, but now he's out of buyers and thus stuck with firesale prices. I was tempted to write down an even smaller AAV, something like 7/90 or 6/80 with an opt out after a few years.
Well if that is the case, I cant see why the Yankees don't do everything they can to sign him. Certainly prefer him in the rotation than Weaver.
