While I am sort of happy and can live with the acquisition of Stanton, I still think the best move would have been not to pick him up. However for the players involved, it was a no brainer. For the money and need, I really don't think he was a priority nor was he an essential need. Still a lot of potential moves to make to make this trade make more sense. Cash is working on that...Maybe he continues to push the right buttons.
Right now, we have a crowded OFs, don't have a 3B, need another starter, and me personally need another lefty bat (though Bird, Didi, Hicks helps). Maybe things will be resolved in the next couple of weeks.
If you ask me, I would have gone hard after Machado or wait until 2019.
I am not entirely convinced that this was a wise move and will not know until for 3-4 years. Hope Stanton is not Danny Tartabull...

Looks like you didn’t notice the zero production we had from the DH slot during the post season.

John, I didn't say there was NOT a need to fill a DH spot...Me personally I would preferred to have gone after someone else.

Stanton has been in the majors for 8 years and is a 4-time all-star. Tartabull was a 1-time all-star in a 14-year career. Stanton already has more career HR's and a higher career WAR than Tartabull. If you want a good comparison for Stanton, look at baseball-reference's list of the 10 most similar players to Stanton to this point in his career. Stanton's list includes 2 HOF'ers, Harmon Killebrew and Reggie Jackson, plus some guys who might have made HOF by now if it weren't for, shall we say, other issues, like Manny Ramirez and Jose Canseco. That doesn't necessarily prove anything, but it's a good sign when there are HOF'ers on your list of most similar players.

Tartabull was Stick's Ellsbury.

Sorry you cannot put Stanton in the same category with Killebrew or other top players to play in the game. Stanton is a totally different type of player.
Never said Tartabull was better than Stanton nor was I comparing him to Stanton in numbers. Was referencing when Tartabull came to Yanks, his production declined despite he did hit 30 something HRs in his 2nd year with a bad Yankee team. You know the fans soured on Tartabull. Tartabull got hurt and his production decline. That is what I was comparing or referencing. We expected a lot from Tartabull. Now fans are expecting Stanton to hit 50 every year.
If you want to compare numbers Tartabull hit higher avg and OB% than stanton despite Tartabull s declines years in his last 5 years of baseball. Like Tartabull, Stanton was riddled with injuries. What do we expect from stanton for 10 years? Sure he ll hit ( or should) hit couple 50 HR seasons, and let’s just hope he doesn’t decline like several players have done donning the Yankee uniform.
My point is am I happy we have him, sure but he is not imo what we needed.

how can we not need his production alan??....if yanks signed a strict dh who gave us this type of production we'd be jumping up and down.....essentially that is what stantion will be minus a few appearances in the outfield when others get opportunity for a day off from the field.....stanton will dh in roughly half the games he plays

His LF appearances will be on the road.

Judge won’t DH much once the shoulder is deemed 100%. He is the teams on field leader.
