Listen "Grisham's $22M Trap: Cashman's Folly Hampers the Offseason!"
Episode Synopsis
The Yankees offseason is off to a fiery start as Trent Grisham accepts the $22 million Qualifying Offer, a move Sal Licata sees as the "domino" leading to a disastrous offseason. Sal fears the Yankees are "banking on rolling this back" with a largely unchanged roster, relying solely on Gerrit Cole's return and growth from underperforming young players like Volpe and Dominguez.
BT & Sal debate whether the $22 million for a defensive specialist who had an outlier offensive year will "dissuade" the Yankees from going "all in" on high-impact upgrades like Cody Bellinger or Steven Kwan. Callers join the fray, calling Cashman out for getting "caught with his pants down" and questioning the Yankees' continued reliance on unproven prospects rather than making aggressive moves to finally win a World Series.
