Do you see CC leaving NY?

Rangers are reportedly going to throw absurd money at CC this offseason. CC will definitely opt out after seeing an older Cliff Lee get 5 years. I just assumed he would resign with the Yankees the day after.

It could get very interesting because the Rangers can spend just as much as the Yankees can. At the very least the Rangers are going to force NY to spend more.

How funny and amazing would it be if CC went to the Rangers and the Yankees were left with no ace lol.

If i were him i'd go for the money no doubt. As a Yankees fan i'm not worried. Missed out on Lee last year but there are other fish in the sea.

CC is the only guy on the team who is a proven ace. It'd be full meltdown mode if they lost him.

The only guy comparable to CC is CJ Wilson and we've all seen how bad he's been this postseason. Likely he stays with Texas because his value has plummeted after this month.

For what it's worth, letting CC walk is probably a better move for the Yankees in the long term. Fatbathia will probably decline sooner rather than later and giving him 6 or 7 years would be fuging stupid. If they sign him they're digging themselves a deep hole.

    • Don't look now, but a 3-game win streak, including 2 on the road in back-to-back games. The Canes haven't won 3 straight since the middle of November, over 2 months ago.  Canes held Dallas to 23 SOG, with a lot of those coming in a late game flurry. Canes have had some difficulty keeping SOG down to where we're used to seeing them. The Dallas game was reminiscent of the defense we saw early in the season- standing teams up at the blue line and making zone entry a real pain in the pads. 
    • Agreed with a lot of this. Couple thoughts, especially towards the OL/future cap things... First, I hope Bryce is good enough to command being paid a Top 5 QB salary. Great news for us if so. But as of now, I think he'd be in that mid-tier range, so that $60 gets cut to 30-40. Baker to Stafford range. Obviously the cap will go up and $60 might be the new mid-tier, but either way I think we're fine here. He either continues to ascend and gets paid Top 5 money because he's that good and thank God. Or, he shows he's Baker level, gets a competitive offer that's outside the Top 10, and we're "saving" money (but also paying someone who may not be the "guy" in that scenario).  The OL is the biggest thing going forward IMO. You're 100% right here about the need for an OL, paying them, % of the cap, etc. Which is why in the next couple of drafts, we HAVE to absolutely nail a couple OL picks. We can't realistically tie up that much money in our OL. So we better turn into the Cowboys the late 2010s and constantly have a revolving cycle of a couple highly paid pieces, with drafted guys who step up and take their place once we have to move on. One highly paid OT, one highly paid OG, and then find rookie deals or cheaper vets that fit well.  Point being, we're teetering on the edge of a few foundational pieces being here now. IF, and history isn't on our side here, we can nail the next couple of drafts...we're in a good spot when it comes to the cap and future. If we don't find a couple of defensive cornerstones and find reliable OL depth that can take over for Hunt/Moton/Lewis as they age or contracts balloon...that's when we're right back in hell IMO. No pressure, Dan.
