NASHVILLE, Tenn. – The Yankees are not trying to win a championship in 2016.
Look, someone had to say it. And since it makes no sense from a business perspective, the Yankees were never going to say it out loud. But open your eyes – they are screaming it with their deeds.
The Yankees were a wild card in 2015 because they had one great strength that overcame so many of their defects: a four-man late-game unit of Andrew Miller, Dellin Betances, Justin Wilson and Adam Warren.
Over a few days at the Winter Meetings, they tried like heck to trade Miller, and did deal Wilson and Warren.
