Today is Chien-Ming Wang’s birthday so here’s an insane fun fact about him.

Chien-Ming Wang is the only baseball player to ever make Time Magazine’s annual Top 100 most influential people list.

Robinson Cano over the 2012 and 2013 seasons:

321/324 Games (6th in MLB)
13.2 fWAR (6th)
146 wRC+ (9th)
.389 wOBA (6th)

His Yankee career was special, but those last two years deserve recognition on their own. And of course he absolutely carried that 2013 team #Yankees

Was looking for different Yankees fun facts to post today and stumbled across the 2013 Opening Day lineup...

Brett Gardner
Eduardo Nunez
Robinson Cano
Kevin Youkilis
Vernon Wells
Ben Francisco
Ichiro
Jayson Nix
Francisco Cervelli

They won 85 games!

[JackCurryYES @JackCurryYES]

It might seem goofy to project a lineup for a game that won't be played. For me, it's therapeutic. With no Judge or Stanton and Means (LH) starting for O's, my Yankee lineup: LeMahieu 2B, Voit 1B, Torres SS, Sanchez C, Andujar DH, Tauchman LF, Urshela 3B, Frazier RF, Gardner CF

Thanks I hate it.

Giancarlo Stanton dropping the mic on the Astros’ sign stealing. “If I knew what was coming in ‘17, I would have hit 80-plus homers,” he said.

[Joel Sherman @Joelsherman1]

Gardner is $10M for 2020, $10M club option for 2021 with a $2.5M buyout. #Yankees The 2020 breakdown is $2M signing bonus, $8M salary. #Yankees

[George A. King III @GeorgeAKingIII]

Free agent catcher Austin Romine and Tigers closing in on two-year deal.

[JackCurryYES @JackCurryYES]

Just spoke to Scott Boras. Asked the agent what helped make Gerrit Cole choose the Yankees and he said, “ Five conversations with Hal Steinbrenner,” and “Andy Pettitte.” Boras was impacted by Hal’s persistence and Cole was influenced by Andy’s stories about pitching in NY.

[JackCurryYES @JackCurryYES]

I didn’t include Happ as part of rotation because I think Yanks will likely move him.

[JackCurryYES @JackCurryYES]

Not only did Cole get the highest contract ever for a pitcher, he dwarfed Strasburg’s record deal by $79M. Yanks secured an ace in a style that George Steinbrenner would have applauded.

Ouch

[Ken Rosenthal @Ken_Rosenthal]

#Dodgers will now shift their focus to free-agent left-hander Madison Bumgarner, sources tell The Athletic.

[Mark Feinsand @Feinsand]

Cole’s deal includes a full no-trade clause, per source.

[Yankees Time @YankeesTimeRTT]

Cole can hit the FA market again at age 34 #Yankees

[Jeff Passan @JeffPassan]

Gerrit Cole has an opt-out clause after the fifth year of his deal with the New York Yankees, a source tells ESPN.

[Yankees Time @YankeesTimeRTT]

Considering the Yankees just agreed to pay JA Happ $17M per year through age 36-38 seasons, nine years shouldn’t have been a Cole dealbreaker (through age 37 season) and luckily for us it wasn’t. Well done #Yankees

[Jeff Passan @JeffPassan]

BREAKING: Right-hander Gerrit Cole is in agreement on a deal with the New York Yankees, sources tell ESPN.
