Stanton came cheap. THe contract is a monster and the guy is 28. Weird, he is 2 1/2 years older than Judge.
I don't like that he has an opt out after 2020, though. Unless he deteriorates, he likely will opt out.
Opt-Out is fine as long as Yanks don't re-up. They will have more than enough hitting with or without Stanton....and the younger core will be at much higher salaries at that time. Going to predict a lineup.....
Gardner
Judge
DiDi
Stanton
Bird
Sanchez
Hicks
Headley
2B (Torres when ready)
They could be poised to break the Team season HR record of 264 if they remain relatively healthy.
