The Mets are somehow stealing the headlines again... losing Edwin Díaz over $3M, letting Pete Alonso walk to a division rival, and pretending everything with Lindor/Soto is fine. Meanwhile, rumors say they’re ready to outbid the Yankees for Cody Bellinger… seriously?
And the Yankees? Still quiet.
Is Brian Cashman lining up a real blockbuster, or is this another offseason of “monitoring the market”?
Adam and Thomas break down every angle LIVE.

The Winter Meetings are here — and, as usual, the Yankees are sitting in neutral while their rivals get aggressive. Adam Weinrib and Thomas Carranante break down where the rumors stand, what Brian Cashman actually said, and the heartbreak of another Don Mattingly Hall of Fame snub.
Topics covered:
⚾ Red Sox circling Ketel Marte, Yariel Rodriguez moves — while Yankees stand pat
⚾ Joel Sherman’s “moderate optimism” piece: Hal Steinbrenner will spend now, but dreams of payroll relief after 2028 (yay?)
⚾ Cashman’s Winter Meetings quotes: “We’re too left-handed right now” + “Thank God we brought in a lot of inventory last deadline” — not exactly inspiring words
⚾ Donnie Baseball denied again: just six votes, still short of Cooperstown
⚾ What’s more likely this week — a Yankees splash addition or a shocking trade departure (Jazz?)
💬 Comment below: What’s your confidence level heading into the Winter Meetings — optimistic, frustrated, or numb?

Devin Williams to the Mets. Of course. The reliever who helped derail the Yankees’ division chase signs a three-year, $50M deal across town — and Sonny Gray somehow found a way to make his Red Sox intro even weirder.
Adam Weinrib and Thomas Carranante break it all down:
⚾ Why the Yankees were right not to match Williams’ deal despite the Mets hype
⚾ The real story behind Williams’ 2024 meltdown and how he might (barely) bounce back
⚾ Sonny Gray’s bizarre “I’m more Boston than anywhere else” line and his long-running obsession with rewriting Yankees history
⚾ Why the Red Sox media are suddenly acting like Gray didn’t collapse in pinstripes
⚾ Jack Curry’s comments on Cody Bellinger’s future — and why it’s officially time to worry after the Grisham QO
💬 Comment below: Are you glad the Yankees passed on Devin Williams, or did they miss their chance?

The Blue Jays just won’t stop. Toronto lands Dylan Cease on a $210M deal, putting even more pressure on the Yankees to make a move — and the ripple effects could reshape the AL East.
Adam Weinrib and Thomas Carranante break down the madness:
⚾ Why the Blue Jays’ Cease signing means they’re not done — and what it says about their priorities (Bichette vs. Tucker)
⚾ The Yankees’ position in the Kyle Tucker and Cody Bellinger markets — and why every reporter seems to disagree
⚾ ESPN exec poll has Yankees pegged as Tucker’s likely destination — while WFAN says it’s “extremely likely” Bellinger returns
⚾ Red Sox land Sonny Gray — fine move, not terrifying yet
⚾ Juan Soto & Francisco Lindor’s supposed “feud”: real tension or offseason clickbait?
⚾ Yankees rumored in on Sandy Alcantara again (thanks, Jim Bowden)
💬 Comment below: Which team do you trust more right now — the Blue Jays or the Yankees?

⚾ What freeing up five 40-man spots means for the next few weeks
⚾ Intriguing non-tender options available: Adolis Garcia, Jonah Heim, Ramon Urias, Gregory Santos, and more
⚾ Corey Seager rumors — real or noise? After the Semien-Nimmo swap, is a 6/$189M trade fantasy or an opportunity?
⚾ Tatsuya Imai meetings reportedly being set up — despite Cashman not knowing his name 🤦♂️
