The New York Yankee’s Giancarlo Stanton is often criticized for not being the MVP player he was in 2017. The Yankees paid big for the star when he was traded for Starlin Castro before the 2018 season. Because of that, the Yankee fans have expected him to be that 2017 star every year with the Yankees. My friends, that is just unrealistic, especially for an unprecedented big-money 13-year contract that the Yankees took over from the Miami Marlins.
The Yankees probably shouldn’t have made that deal; it was for too much money and for too long a contact that was misguided for the Marlins as well.
