What if ...
Yankees trade Stanton to Braves, allowing ...
Yankees to sign Harper or Machado
----------
Would you do it? I think I'd rather have Stanton's contract than go all-in for Harp or Machado, but I'm uncertain. Would prefer Machado best of all, with Markakis on a 1-year+option deal, and Riley simmers in AAA splitting time at 3B and LF.
I think Yankees would look to move Stanton, as he hasn't really lived up to his hype, maybe they think he can't handle the NYY stage after years in Miami. I'm sure they would like to pursue Harper, but can't with Stanton around.

I don't know. His contract runs through 2027. That's a long time, plus he's always been a hot-and-cold hitter. Why give up prospects to take on that deal when you can just sign somebody?
