Around the Empire: Yankees news
Monday, December 4, 2023
MLB Trade Rumors | Nick Deeds: Sunday continued the ongoing developments in the Juan Soto rumors, or the lack thereof if you're focusing on the Yankees' pursuit of the superstar. The gap between the two teams remains real, though varying sources have split hairs over the size of the prospect pool that San Diego is asking for. The real development has been in Toronto's entrance into the dance, with reports of their interest being very real and that they are set on trying to get one of either Soto or Shohei Ohtani. The Padres reportedly asked about Alek Manoah in conversations with the Blue Jays, which, after the year he's had would seem like a blessing in disguise for the Jays to turn him into Soto.

Sunday, December 3, 2023
The Yankees been on both the positive and negative ends of some no-hitters in recent years.

Mike Lupica: Juan Soto is made for the Yankees and it's time for the Bombers to make a deal
Saturday, December 2, 2023
More than anything, these are the Winter Meetings when the Yankees are supposed to be on time with a player they need, and that player is Juan Soto, whether they have to overpay with prospects to get him or not. And as good as Gerrit Cole has been for the Yankees, as much as he has been the horse they needed, they weren't on time with Gerrit Cole, either, because they should have gotten Cole when he left the Pirates, and not when he left the Astros.
