 Christian Jack Curry back here on this breaking news edition of BP TV. We now welcome in our Michael K and Michael This has just been a tremendous day for Brian Cashman and the Yankees bolstering their squad Absolutely and they still have about no just under 24 hours if they want to do anything else and you know You look at what they've done and what they have to do They probably will trade Joey Gallo at some point, but I don't put it past them at all They have kept their top prospects So if you really want to make a run at Juan Soto and make this a breathtaking trade deadline edition for the Yankees Well, you could do that as well I'm not saying that you will but I'm amazed that they could do all the heavy lifting heavy lifting that they've done and they Still have their short stops in the monolithic system and they still have their catchers as well So at this point till we see how they perform looks like the easy-to-good job Michael if the playoffs were to start tomorrow We all know Garrett Cole would get the ball in game too I think a lot of folks have been wondering for the past several weeks Who would get the ball in game to how likely is it that the Yankees picked up that picture today in Montos? Well, I think that there's a lot of possibilities according to who they're going to face So if Louis Severino comes back and it's totally healthy I still think he could be the game to starter than Montos would be the game three But I'm not sure we're gonna see Louis Severino in the game until the end of August Maybe the beginning of September and whether or not they'd be able to stretch them out enough So Montos certainly gives Aaron Boone and his staff a very legitimate number two and let's not forget You have Nesta Cortez there as well who's doing a really outstanding job So the Yankees have some viable options as they go into any kind of postseason series all Depending on the matchups for the the other team Michael They did what they needed to do bringing an outfield or an Andrew Ben and Tendi and Jack broke the story today about Scott Efros coming over from the Cubs. I want to focus on the Bullpen right now. We talked about the rotation, but we just talked in our last segment. There's more diversification for Aaron Boone now out in that bullpen Yeah, it's gonna be interesting to see the way it plays out because they've got to make two roster spots now Who's gonna go down and who's gonna stay obviously who has options? That's important as well But I think Efros is the one that really excites the Yankees Aaron Boone said today He's been on their radar and that he started hearing about Efros in April so obviously the front office was even before that They like everything about him what Jack just said in the previous segment They have him it under control for a very very long time. He can get out righties and lefty So that gives them a different look now I think in Lutrivena what they've done is they've gotten a guy who has been really outstanding before and he has not been Outstanding this year and the Yankees fix people. I mean look at what they do with clay homes They turned them into this closure beast that struggled now of late, but for the most part outstanding He was an all-star as well. Maybe they see something with Trevino a release point Maybe they want to accentuate certain pitches and the like so I think that both of these guys could really help But the guy I believe that they're most excited about is Efros Michael the Yankees have the best record in the American League right now for a huge chunks of this season They've had the best record in the major leagues But Brian Cashman and his front office recognized that there were areas of improvement with the flurry of moves that they've made and that We've just discussed. What kind of jolt do you think that sends to the clubhouse? I Think anytime you make big-time moves like what the Yankees did last year when they got Rizzo and Gallo that Excited the team. They said oh, okay, the organization is all in as well Again, this shows the Yankees are all in they traded a lot of good young prospects I think over the last two years Brian Cashman because the Yankee farm system is so flush with talent has improved his team by trading 33 minor league players now There's a method to his madness as well Some of the guys have to go on the 40 man roster at the end of this year anyway And he wouldn't have been able to make room so he puts them into deals But that's not what the the guys on the 26 man roster looking at they're looking at is this team better after these trades I mean when you bring in a guy like Ben and Tendi, you're better when you bring in a big-time pitcher like Montos You're better than you hear that your organization was also in on Castillo You heard rumors about them being in on hater as well. They are going for it prospects are nice You want to hug them all those things? But the Yankees want to win a championship and they just prove that over the last two days that they're going for it And if we know it and if the people that are fans know it the guys in that locker room know it as well And I think it excites them it probably propels them to another level prospects are nice parades are better Michael And I just have to ask I know you talked about Soto when you first came on But would you be surprised if anything else happened they have until six o'clock tomorrow? No, I wouldn't be surprised I think I think the gallow deal has to be made the eighties have 41 guys on the 40 man roster So somebody definitely has to go so there's a trade there But the eighties have set themselves up that they could relax and not panic and if something presents itself That's exciting that could take them to the next level. I believe that they would do it now Do I believe that big deals happening? My gut feeling is no But there is another deal coming because I have to get deal with the roster situation and then the gallows situation as well
