Looks like you only have M’s ownership to blame.

Could’ve gotten more talent prospect wise, but would’ve had to eat all or at least more of the money.

According to sources, other teams offered more talent to the Mariners for Encarnacion, but weren’t willing to take on as much of his salary as the Yankees were. Sources indicated the Astros and Rays were also actively involved, with the Rockies in the mix to a lesser extent.

Yankees trade for Edwin Encarnacion, AL HR leader. M's continue their role as feeder team.

Why do Mariners trade with Yankees. All their prospects have been busts for the

Juan Then is the player going to Seattle. Yankees originally got him from Seattle a couple years ago.

Yep, they got back a player they lost for a different failed Yankees prospect.

Nick Rumbelow has never been a Yankees prospect. AAAA arm at best.

Pazos was decent. Mariners gave up nothing for Gamel and got Domingo

Yes. There was a time where I thought Jesus Montero was going to be present day Gary Sanchez lol

Do you think EE was worth better than the teams 25-30th best prospect? I do.

No. Straight up EE was worth nothing. His contract was underwater.

Eating a little money though, he's not underwater. Cruz got 15 million last

That’s why you got a Top 30 prospect. Because you ate money.

Rosenthal just said split. I’d guess half and half.

Yeah. They ate so much of Jay Bruces contract for a low level prospect, but
