Soriano to the Yankees for RHP Corey Black

AmishDave · Jul 25, 2013

Keep seeing this all over the 'net. And everything you read on the internet is true. Pulled from the lineup tonight. Just waiting for word on the other moving parts.

I read Roy Firestone says the Cubs will be getting back a HUGE name prospect in return.

Would be crazy if it was A-Rod for Soriano. Just like back in the day.

EDIT: Before the trolls come out....I know it's for a lower level minor league pitcher with the Yankees taking on the bulk of his salary.

Does the Yankees even have anyone in that category

I'm betting Chase Whitley and one or two of Nik Turley/Evan Rutckyj/Bryan Mitchell. Yanks paying bulk of this season, <$2 million in '14.

Roy says so, and his word is gold.

Soriano close to rejoining the Yankees

And it's official. Lower teir prospect.

Looks as though it'll be Corey Black.

Y4NK335 · Jul 26, 2013

Yanks will be on the hook for 6.8M of the 24M remaining.

1.8 this season
5 next season

As for the luxury tax hit for next season I've seen a figure around 4M.

Not bad, a much needed righty bat at a very reasonable cost.

D-Lite · Jul 26, 2013

I like Corey Black, but yeah, you do a deal like this any day.

For the money it's a good deal for the yanks.

It's seems strange seeing another team pay the bulk of the salary of a player headed to the rich Yankees.
Usually it's the Yankees overpaying for players.

Soriano with two Home Runs and 6 RBI last night.

First inning Grand Slam against Jered Weaver tonight.

nerdherd020 · Aug 14, 2013

Up until last night, the Astros had scored more runs than the Yankees this season.

vwnut13 · Aug 14, 2013

Back-to-back 6 RBI game for Alfonso Soriano...and it's only the second inning.

8-0 Yankees.

vwnut13 · Aug 14, 2013

Whoomp there it is. A Solo Home Run.

Last Night - 2 HR, 6 RBI

Tonight - 2 HR, 7 RBI
