Yankees decided not to match Dodgers winning $325M bid to Yamamoto because: 1) they thought $300M was right offer, 2) they didn’t believe anyone should have a bigger deal than Gerrit Cole. NYY offered optout after 5 yrs but not a $50M signing bonus. Highly unlikely it mattered.
Max Fried confirmed that he will start tomorrow’s ALDS Game 3. His plans will not change with a baby on the way.
“I've got a really supportive family that that understands that this is my job, and it's not going to affect what happens tomorrow.”
