Paul Goldschmidt reportedly turned down other offers that were more than the $12 million the Yankees gave him, per Jon Heyman.
[Winfield] I still cannot believe I’ve lost one of my favorite teammates and great friend Rickey Henderson. Rest in Peace.
Rickey Henderson.
[Sawchik] Yankees' first basemen posted the worst wRC+ mark (71) for the franchise since 1913 this past season. Their 1Bs were 30th in the majors in batting average, 30th in slugging, and 30th in on-base %. There should be some urgency here.

When are we doing the roast threads?
[Hoch] "The job is not done yet. We have more to do," said Brian Cashman, who apologized for checking his phone during a 20-minute Zoom call because he said dialogue on other moves is continuing.
wtf is this supposed to mean!? 😭
[SNY Yankees] Juan Soto says he has not spoken with Aaron Judge since his free agency decision, but he plans on doing so: "We're still friends, we're still cool. It's just business. The relationship that we created last year will stay forever."

Talkin’ Yanks: Yankees are expressing interest in a trade for Devin Williams, per @Ken_Rosenthal
[Hoch] It "makes sense" to move Aaron Judge back to right field, Brian Cashman said. Aaron Boone mentioned Jasson Dominguez as a leading candidate for center field. Trent Grisham is also under contract.
[Morosi] The Blue Jays, Red Sox, Phillies, and Yankees are active on free-agent relievers. Tanner Scott, Carlos Estévez, Jeff Hoffman, Kenley Jansen, Kirby Yates, and Kyle Finnegan are among the top names still available.
[Talkin Yanks] Here’s how the Yankees lineup looks currently
[YES] Our Capitan was loyal. He knew what it meant to be a Yankee and made the right decision. More than can be said for others.
[Martino] The Yankees were in the lead for Soto all through the process, through the weekend and late afternoon today. Steve Cohen came from the top rope very late and got it done.
[Madden] It comes down to this: Hal Steinbrenner has no regrets about losing out on a player who went just for the money. He was very uncomfortable at $76OM and I suspect there’s a sigh of relief among the Yankee hierarchy.
[Feinsand] The Yankees’ final offer to Soto was 16 years and $760 million, per source. That’s a $47.5 million AAV; the Mets offer was for a $51 million AAV.
