Did anyone with baseball knowledge think that Montas was going to give the Yankees anything of value had he been healthy? The guy’s success was predicted by the fact that the Oakland coliseum’s field is the shape of a cricket field.People like to point to early July as being the downfall of the Yankees 2022 season but the real turning point was when Cashman decided to go with this bum instead of Castillo.

C'mon Yanks...replace Montas with Bauer...we do well with former domestic abusers...

Nah, not even that. I get not wanting to trade all the prospects. The worst is the refusal to spend money in FA, especially for top stars that don’t have a pick penalty. Then all of a sudden, you’re at the trade deadline and oh shyt, everyone’s trying to gouge you and there’s not even enough good players on the block.

Montas was a bad trade but Castillo would cost at least 2 of our best prospects plus +120 million contract. If they did trade for castillo, im not sure if they would still have gone after Rondon. And im not sure how Castillo would have helped against the Astros. The team scored 9 runs over 4 games.
