Current bench may make it easier for Yankees to use a six-man rotation in 2016
Thoughts five weeks before pitchers and catchers report to Spring Training

Four years ago today, the Yankees traded Jesus Montero and Hector Noesi to the Mariners for Michael Pineda and Jose Vicente Campos. Here’s our post on the trade. The comments were lost when we switched to Disqus — we still have the comment database but restoring them would be a bit of a pain — but I assure you the reaction was mostly negative. Montero was going to be the next great Yankees hitter and Pineda was just a fly ball guy who faded in the second half. Neither side has gotten what they wanted out of the trade, but it’s clear now the Yankees got the better end of the deal.

Anyway, here is your open thread for the night. The Knicks and Nets are playing each other, plus there’s a bunch of college basketball on the schedule too. Discuss those games, the Montero-Pineda trade, and anything else right here.
