Tulowitzki becoming a Yankee is imminent at this point

[easyliving]

Guy has publicly stated he wants to play for a contender and Jeter has been a longtime Idol of his and Tulo has not been shy about making it all public. Considering signed for another 6 years and at the prime of his career I highly doubt the Yankees have the prospects and talent to trade for him. But given the right offer I definitely think the Rockies would let him go as it seems like Tulo just can't seem to stay healthy and his home/away splits are not consistent and his numbers are inflated from playing at Coors Field. Will be interesting to see if the Yanks will go after him right away or not.

[Big Bear]

will Jeter move to 3rd base?

[Big Bear]

Yankees could trade Greene, Sabbathia, and A-Rod and their #1 prospect

[Dirty Sanchez]

will Jeter move to 3rd base?

Don't be a dope Bear...if he goes it's after the season...and only if the Yankees pay the Rockies ransom. Surely...the amount that Colorado will want will be high

[jjgold]

Colorado stats mean nothing

that makes no sense... Tulo is 10X better defensively than Jeter but Jeter is still valuable as a DH/3B

i would think if the Yankees are going to make a splash its NOW.

why not send Jeter out trying to win a world series ring?

With Tulo and once Tanaka gets back i see them as a contender.

[ZetaPsi808]

Colorado stats mean nothing

tulo hit .257

avg .364

obp .447 slugging

.811 ops away from home this year

those are decent stats not but all star level

Its hard to deny Tulo's ability JJ.

Is he over paid? Hell yeah but is he still the best SS in MLB??? hell yeah to that too.

Well....for a couple of reasons like Tanaka is probably going for Tommy John surgery and you're not going to see him again until 2016 for one....and the other is Tulo is hurt also and he was in Philadelphia undergoing an MRI so there's no way the Yankees are going to have any of them on the roster anyways

clueless as usual.

I had to read that quite a few times to make sure I wasn't misinterpreting what he was trying to say

Mets offering up Noah Syndergaard for a push to get Tulo:

Not sure Tulo wants to play for the Muts...but they've decided to start getting an offer together

Tulo is all about the dollar signs. He would probably in Iraq for the right amount.

Great move for the Mets if they can get him.

Nash your always good with stats, as far as his road numbers any other guys out their that have similar numbers to compare to his? Curious to see what is real value is.

[jjgold]

a lot tougher to hit for Yanks than Colorado

Its night and day..100x more pressure in NY

[stevenash]

^
This year, Atuve is .339 on the road, where does that midget get his power from?
I need a few minuted for career - active.

[Dirty Sanchez]

Obviously his numbers are inflated hitting in the Little League Field of Coors in Colorado...and that has to be factored in to him going anywhere. Not every player can play in the Bronx....some guys can flourish there....and some guys get chewed up and spit out like yesterday's garbage

Pressure is what you make of it.
Some players just zone get in a zone, feel no pressure, some gag on the thought of a must hit situation, like 2 down man on second third, team down 1 run.

[big joe 1212]

Mets GM now saying they are not willing to give up Syndergaard

I think the Mets should as they already have enough young starting pitching.

Mets are only a shortstop and 1 more power bat away from being a top contender

Coors is #1 this year, by far, some of the others ranked on this list will surprise you.

Mets are foolish, they can go to war next season without Syndergard, still start Harvey, Niese, Wheeler, Degrom, and Gee, with Tulo at SS.
Wright - Tulo - Murphy - Duda infield makes them top 5 infield. Duda has emereged and arrived.

shocked to see Target Field on that list. And how is Camden Yards last on the list? Might start blindly betting unders in their home games the perception in general is their a decent pitching team with power.

Toronto with their turf doesn't...but St. Louis & Minnesota being that high up does

[nvrlose37]

Tulo would go apeshit in that Little League ballpark in NY. 81 games there is a stat padder compared to 81 in the Rockies.

exactly.

Jason Heyward once said
"The only pressure on me is the pressure i put on myself."

[15805]

He won't go to the Yanks because his number #2 will be retired. He'd have to have a double digit number for the Yanks.
By next year retired numbers will be.
1) Martin
2) Jeter
3) Ruth
4) Gehrig
5) DiMag
6) Torre
7) Mantle
8) Berra
9) Maris
10) Rizzuto

[magyarsvensk]

People like to use "pressure" as an excuse for what is most likely just a roll of the dice. Haven't you guys ever played craps? Sometimes it seems like the roller is the reason that a seven isn't coming up, but any person of reasonable intelligence would know that it is all in our heads.

[magyarsvensk]

Anyone who gets an honest to God case of the yips up at the plate or at the mound wouldn't be a major leaguer. Just another case of armchair athletes thinking they can do what some of the greatest athletes in the world can do. I don't know why this is a news flash, but yeah, you can't.

[jjgold]

I don't think people understand it's tougher to hit in New York than any other place in the world

Intense media coverage plays a part

Expected to win plays a part

Hi expectations play a major part

You may want to talk to Steve Sax about that....

[opie1988]

will Jeter move to 3rd base?

What a fukkin idiot! Yes, the Yanks are going to ask Jeets to change positions to finish out the year.

No way this clown is for real, is he??

Or Dave Winfield, or Gil Hodges, or.....
