And it looks like Gleyber Torres is BEYOND legit. At 19, by far the youngest player ever to win the AZFL batting title and league MVP. Ridiculous.The guy is legit.
That trade now becomes Brendan Ryan for a whole lot of real good Cub prospects------Gleyber Torres etc
Maybe, maybe, WC at best. The pitching staff and dearth of durable players is the weak point, and it's really weak. But luck, namely good luck, could appear and perhaps they overachieve and get the upper hand WC. However, the pitching staffs of the other AL East teams just walk over the Yankees next year. Now 2018 or 2019, I'm hoping for a bit more, like a guaranteed WC spot.What do Yankee fans see as the next year where the club will be competitive? In other words, in what year of this 5-year contract will they actually use Chapman?
Not rhetorical/snarky. What's the timeline?

Judge will be fine. He's had the same issue at every level and he has adjusted at every level.Would like to have had them add Hill to the staff but the Dodgers wanted to keep him so they would have had to overpay. The staff is questionable yet again but they will field a competitive team next year I believe. The fact you replace ARod (half a year) with Holiday and Tex with Bird already makes your line up a bit stronger. Not sure they're done as I doubt they field both Ellsbury and Gardner, that just isn't working. Love to get rid of both actually but that won't happen. Don't think Judge is the answer, looked overmatched too often although I liked the small sampling f Mason Williams.
Love to replace Headley, good fielder with little impact on offense at a power position. Anyone who can hit .300 or with power please. 2018 they will be right there as next years FA market is primed.
Judge will jack but expect .245 average and tons of Ks.Judge will be fine. He's had the same issue at every level and he has adjusted at every level.
