Brian Cashman messing up third base 2014-2017: Yangervis Solarte, Chase Headley, Josh Donaldson. Thursday, December 14, 2017
Yankee general manager 1998-2017 Brian Cashman was named 2017 executive of the year by Baseball America. Cashman is looking for a third baseman ... again...
After the 2014 season Cashman was looking for a third baseman...
Cashman completely missed the boat on Donaldson, who was voted AL MVP in 2015, his first season in Toronto. For seasons 2015, 2016, 2017 Headley was paid the most of the three, 10.6 times more than Solarte, who was traded by Cashman for Headley. Yet Solarte performed comparably well to Headley.
Today Cashman traded Headley back to San Diego to reduce Yankee payroll for 2018 by the $13 million on the final year of the contract that Cashman gave to Headley only a couple of weeks after Donaldson was traded by Oakland to Toronto right under Cashman's nose.

Yankees should trade for Matt Olson, not sign free agent Freddie Freeman. Sunday, March 13, 2022
The New York Yankees need a first baseman for the 2022 season...
The Yankees can trade for Olson, probably by offering top minor league prospects.
