There’s a report DJ LeMahieu is “dismayed” with the Yankees and has asked his agent to connect with other teams.
There’s a report from Yahoo! Sports that DJ LeMahieu is “dismayed” with the Yankees and has asked his agent to connect with other teams on a contract. If true, it’s not a surprise as the Yankees have yet to sign the team’s best player. They have yet to do anything this offseason.

DJ LeMahieu is still a free agent and the Yankees still haven’t improved their roster or rotation.
It’s been three days since the last podcast and DJ LeMahieu is still a free agent, and over the last three days, the Yankees haven’t improved their roster or rotation. The Yankees did finally make an offseason move, but it was nothing more than a depth move that will hopefully not have any impact on the team this season.

It’s been nearly three months since the Yankees’ season ended and they have done nothing to improve their roster since then.
It’s been nearly three months since the Yankees’ season ended and they have done nothing to improve their roster in that time. They haven’t done anything to their roster at all, other than have impending free agents become free agents and release the ineffective Jonathan Holder. Spring training is a little more than a month away (if the season starts on time) and the Yankees are much worse today than they were when they were eliminated.

The Yankees are bringing back Zack Britton for 2021 and 2022, but for now, they’re not bringing back Brett Gardner.
The Yankees had to bring Zack Britton back for 2021 (and 2020), so they did. The Yankees didn’t want to pay Brett Gardner $10 million for 2021, so they didn’t. But everyone should expect Gardner to re-sign with the Yankees at a much lower cost.

The Yankees don’t appear to be close to the Rays or Astros or winning the American League pennant.
Aaron Boone can keep talking about how the Yankees were a tie game in the eighth inning of Game 5 of the ALDS from beating the American League-winning Rays, but the difference between the two teams was much greater than that. The Yankees weren’t going to score a second run in that game if it went 10 innings or 100 innings. The Yankees might be in a championship window, but when you look at the roster construction of the Rays or Astros, the Yankees don’t appear to be close to even winning the AL pennant.
