Baseball HQ captures the industry consensus for us:
.....
<p>Before this year I didn't feel too badly about out first rounders. Zunino would obviously learn to hit in a year or two, Ackley had shown glimmers, #Jackson and Morgan had talent and if DJ wasn't exactly Kris Bryant he still looked like a plus major leaguer. I dunno if it's our minor league coaches this year, the players, or what - but the farm is as devoid of joy as the big-league club. Somebody perform an exorcism on the entire system before it's too late. Maybe trading Ackley will send that mojo #New_York's way.</p>
<p>More on the Yankees discussions. BTW, if Jack Z. turned down such an offer for Ackley (or wanted more)....assuming this is accurate...that's enough reason for me to get rid of Jack. The Yankees recently reached out to the Mariners to express interest in Dustin Ackley, reports Mark Feinsand of the #New_York Daily #News (Twitter link). The two sides discussed a scenario in which outfielders Ramon Flores and Ben Gamel would’ve gone to the Mariners, but #Seattle GM Jack Zduriencik wanted more for Ackley, and talks have since cooled, per Feinsand. Ackley, the former No.
<p>Xtreme: and of course I'm generalizing...lots of #New_York types get married! I just had a few experiences of "Oh...I'm sooooo glad I moved into the Big City" while they rolled their eyes. ha ha</p>
<p>@ All: I sort of stopped dating in #New_York because several of the guys looked at me...seriously as if it was a "provincial notion" to date a slummy #New_Jersey person...It was very offensive to me.</p>
