I was going to say, to move Headly, the Yanks have to pay half the salary and maybe INCLUDE an asset just to get rid of him. Like Headly + a minor league + Yanks pay 1/2 the salary of 2018 for some random minor leaguer the other team isn't that sold on, but maybe the Yanks could use some organization depth at that position.

Chase sucked recently but he was a mai part to the hot start and is a legit glove at 3rd. I know we want to bring up Frazier but I only trade Chase if someone wants him.

The issue is that 3B is such a deep position, no team in the MLB would really want Headley. MAYBE the Cardinals. Other then the Cardinals, nobody is buying Headley

Gyorko plays 3B for them and is beasting so far. Only teams that I could see interested in him are the Mets and Giants really. Don't think Headley will get back much of anything which is why I think having him as a bench option wouldn't be the worst thing in the world. Offers more versatility than someone like Carter or Austin.

Gyorko plays 2B more then 3B actually. A washed up Peralta plays 3B.

Mets have 0 interest as Rosario is about to come up any day now.

Giants just called up Arroyo and have the former Yank Nunez. Both better then Headley.

Gyorko has had 112 ABs at 3B, 12 as a 2B. Wong is starting at 2B. Peralta has been relegated to the bench. Nunez is pretty bad himself, but yeah Headley doesn't offer much of an upgrade. I guess the Mets move Asdrubal to 3rd when he comes up? But yeah so he has no real suitors. Not good I guess.

Gyorko has gotten most of his games at 3B because Peralta was supposed to start at 3B, then got injured. Wong can't play 3rd. He's still a natural 2B if you look at his career history.

Nunez is actually a pretty good player. 12 steals and a solid BA. Was an all-star last season.

I guess the Yanks would have to sort of hope for an injury somewhere creating a need for Headley.

If he continues to slump and Torres tears up AAA, what do they do? I mean protracted slump. Hypothetical. Do they release Torres and hope to get by and save Headley's roster spot, or do they call up Torres, wait 20 games and then dump Headley?

Headley is Cashman's boy. The only reason why Cash never went after him was the fact, A-Roid was manning the hot corner. I highly doubt the Yankees trade him. They're stuck with him till his contract is over.

Yeah he played 2B for the Padres mostly. but with Wong and him playing well Peralta wont be getting any burn.

Nunez is hitting .272/.294/.370 (78 wRC+) as a 3B with his typical bad defense. His bat is league average usually, combine that with poor defense you have a below average baseball player. And making the ASG helps when you're a Twin. But they have bigger problems than him.

Not many players provide HR + SB's in today's MLB. That's where Nonnies value lies imo.

He doesn't hit HRs though. Set his career high at 16 last year, but before that he was averaging like 4 a season. He's at 2 so far. My guess he ends up with somewhere around 10 this year. He's a gap hitter mostly. Thank god we moved on from him and got Didi instead. Only wish we kept Solarte over Headley though.

Last year he had 40 extra base hits and a slugging % of .440. Those are solid numbers for an infielder that also gives you 40+ steals. Didi obviously was a great move. Love it

I mean it was his career year, I doubt he repeats that. History has shown that he won't. And yeah he can steal bags, his skills better translate up the middle, but he doesn't have the glove for it. As a 3B his value isn't very high.
