Gerrit Cole looked every bit like the ace the Yankees paid for, and his dominance is creating a fascinating debate as Tarik Skubal trade rumors continue to swirl. Thomas Carannante discusses whether the Yankees should even consider adding another ace, how the improved rotation is helping stabilize the bullpen, and why Aaron Boone deserves credit for the lineup flexibility we've seen lately. Plus: Giancarlo Stanton is nearing a return, George Lombard Jr. is hitting a rough patch, and what it all means for the Yankees moving forward.👍 Like & subscribe for Yankees videos every Monday/Thursday at 2pm ET.Chapters:0:00 - Intro & Yankees Sweep the Royals 3:15 - Gerrit Cole’s Dominant Return Changes Everything 8:21 - Should the Yankees Go All-In for Tarik Skubal? 13:35 - What Would a Skubal Trade Cost? 19:13 - How Skubal Could Fix the Bullpen Too 25:36 - Giancarlo Stanton Injury Update & Return Timeline 26:41 - The Lineup Flexibility Problem When Stanton Returns 32:22 - Royals Sweep Recap & Offensive Explosion 34:01 - Athletics Series Preview: Rodón, Weathers & Warren 35:39 - George Lombard Jr.’s Promotion and Triple-A Struggles 37:12 - Is Anthony Volpe Finally Taking Advantage? 39:23 - Why the Yankees Aren’t Trading for a Third Baseman 46:18 - Aaron Boone’s Lineup Decisions Under Fire 50:16 - Trade Deadline Outlook & Bullpen Market Concerns 53:22 - Final Thoughts & Outro--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------SUBSCRIBE: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCM4kNVfs5de5BNUY55hEiIAFollow Thomas: https://twitter.com/TOMMYS_TAKESFollow Adam: https://twitter.com/AdamWeinrib ---#Yankees #NewYorkYankees #MLB #YanksGoYardTarik Skubal to Yankees?
