@CharlesNYR Ok who cares. Fans don't decide who signs, why does it matter if they got warned or not? Not like they were gonna decide if they could get rid of him. The front office new what they were getting. It was the same Marcus Stroman who called Brian Cashman a clown 2 years ago. Yet he still signed him.
StroShow has a Napoleon Complex and when he leaves a team, he shits on the fanbase, calls the team racist, blah blah. He's the Talib Kweli of baseball.
For sure... Dude already has made a ton of cash and thinks the world is always out to get him. He hates criticism which is tough and is a social media problem but I get it though, when every other pitcher on there roster Cole is 6'4" Rodon 6'3" Fried 6'4" Pretty wild Stroman has had the career he has had to this point at 5'7". But that story is old man, we know you can pitch... And your work ethic and attitude have gotten you here but now your starter no 5 fall in line and help your team.
You get a good infield defense behind him and he is a great pitcher, just bad in the club house. So there isn't a team that fits him because the teams that don't care about club house behavior don't have the defense for Stroman to be worthwhile, read the Yankees.
@@jadenfoster7729 1)who cares what he did in the WBC 2) you said GREAT pitcher. He's never been close to great. Now you're changing your story. Yes he was good years ago but that's not helping the Yankees in 2025.
I think its more the fans want him gone than the team. Too many Yankee fans think we have to have an all-star at every position... Something tells me very soon there will be some disappointment coming..
@ Then this guy Oswald is full of it. SCPD is either the highest or second highest paying police department in the country. And that’s just for uniformed officers. Detectives make even more bank. Well into six figures. Thank you because this further solidifies that Robby is 100% right. Stroman is a spoiled brat and has been even before he went pro.
Pitchers declining once they leave Toronto should be called the Pete Walker Effect. I think Kikuchi is the only guy in recent memory to actually improve after leaving.
People saying he's a cancer and all that, it's not about that. He actually really was on his best behavior this past season and went out of his way to avoid drama. It's about that long contract and with his grind it out style of pitching, small frame, and age its not looking good. Yankees should not have signed him.
Then he didn’t go out of his way enough. Calling out a teammate on the field isn’t kosher with the Yankees. Especially when gleyber has been there longer, is a better player, and everyone liked him. He also picked a play where it’s not like Gleyber’s hustle cost the play. It wasn’t going to be made either way
Tbf hes not caused any bother at Yankees, didnt kick up a fuss despite not being used post season and was pretty good first half the year just dropped off in the second half, hes a solid 4th/5th starter for most teams, probably a bit overpaid but pitchers are getting silly money now so hard to tell Hes not a strikeout guy and Yankees defence was pretty lousy which didnt help him
People act like Stroman has no value. He had a sub 4 era into August or September. Yankees are haggling over money that’s all that’s holding this up. If they pay 5-6 million of it Stroman for one year 12-13 mil is a good get in this market
I understand his frustration with the Yankees Defense. Didn't he have one of the worst seasons of defensive performance behind him in MLB history? Half of the negative DRS could be attributed to literally just Gleyber Torres?
He cares more about the vintage yankee merch he shows off than his actual ability to throw the ball, rather frustrating tbh. Hopefully the Yanks can include him in a trade package or get some decent prospects for him & cash.
Jays fan here. We warned y’all. He was an absolute beast in his rookie and sophomore seasons, started to trail off then started his whole “me over team” mantra. He always wants to fight as he thinks the world is against him. He has the same cycle over and over again. He will look great in a Pirates or Athletics jersey next year.
He played in 4 games in his second season due to tearing his ACL. His best season was probably 2017 - his fourth. He was injured again in 2018 and had a terrible year, but bounced back in 2019. Not bad for a guy that "started to trail off" after year 2. But you're right that Stro always has a chip on his shoulder and tends to rub people - particularly media types - the wrong way. That kind of fire works well in your 20s. Not so much in your mid-30s when you're clearly declining. That said, he's always had love for the Toronto fans, and his cameo during the Bautista Ring of Honour ceremony was cool.
Not gonna lie as a Yankee fan when he yelled at gleyber for not making the play we all felt him. Also he is not from a wealthy white area of Long Island
Mets, dodgers and Houston have an older team than the Yankees do but yall don’t call those team retirement homes! This channel makes good content but the Yankee hate is clear as day!!!
Not being tall, I would think it affects how effective to be a sinker action pitcher. I am surprised he has not gotten injured as Tim Lincecum. His velocity must demand a lot of body torque. As for attitude, it comes from being short in a position that is dominated by tall guys. He has a chip on his shoulder, which is ok by me.
Yankees messed up big time with Stroman overpaid for a guy they don’t even trust in the postseason. Cashman was right years ago, so why sign him? Now they’re stuck with an $18.5M problem no one wants... Classic Yankees chaos!
@@bigpictureguys8415 Fair point, but if all they needed was a placeholder, why drop $37M? Feels like they could've found a cheaper 'innings eater' without the drama. Yankees just love overcomplicating things.
Doesn't matter what team Stroman is on, he's going to burn that bridge. Dude is a strong candidate to pitch for the Long Island Ducks once this contract is over.
I bet they’ll move him. He’s only 18 mill a year when pitching is at an all time high. He’s pretty cheap for getting 140 innings and generally having good numbers. Let’s remember if he was on a team that had good defense his numbers would be much better. But if severino is getting over 20 a year stroman is cheap😂
Stroman is good in small doses... he has stretches where he's lights out... puts some fire under some butts, then turns into an anchor dragging you down. One year contract, then off to somewhere else for new scenery, so everyone gets him on his best behavior.
Stroman is an idiot. Guy could have probably been so much better if he spent less time thinking everyone was out to get him, or that everyone is racist towards him. Guy is crazy toxic.
He was great as a Blue Jay and I could totally see the Blue Jays come calling for his services again because that’s what the blue jays do - resurrect aging players!
Stroman isn’t a bad person on the Yankees. He’s been a class act with all of his interviews and genuinely looks like he wants to be here regardless of his role. I don’t feel he’s a problem at all. Him coming out like he did against Torres IMO was fine, Torres’ glove is 🚮 and Judge nipped any potential issue in the butt following that inning. 🤷🏻♂️
Lol I told some Yankees fans early this season that this dude is a clubhouse cancer and is not worth the headache. And they told me I was salty cuz he was talking shit about the Mets. Lol na. He was decent. But he’s just the most entitled cancerous cyst and that he’s going to complain about every little thing and then when you trade or cut him he’ll call you racist cuz he didn’t get his way. Glad that’s not the Mets problem anymore. Goodluck
Really don’t understand the stroman hate he had good stuff this year. Literally benched the whole post season even tho they knew they had no chances to win the w.s. ; After game 3. Didn’t even let bro TRY n the post season ion get it.
Okay im all seriousness stroman isnt wrong about ppl being racist in ny lol. It is what it is though. Ppl on li arent all rich and he earned his spot in the majors. I played with him growing up and always had a chip on his shoulder, nothing wrong with that. Hes a good pitcher all that matters.
Former teammate of Stroman said he would microdose in the clubhouse before games. Doubt teammates want a guy whos doing drugs before games in the clubhouse.
🤦🏽♂️ “desperate” bro, SHUT UP 😆 You can never have enough pitching, Stroman can have a bounce back year without a doubt, he has the talent. Solid 4th or 5th Starter IN ANY MLB ROSTER
I didn’t realize Stroman was on the Yankees WS roster(?). Makes me wonder why he wasn’t used in some of those late inning games in ANY capacity when the bullpen looked depleted. I mean, why put him in the roster when he’s just taking up space? Clay Holmes pitched in ALL five games including on three straight days in games 3-5. Game 3 of the World Series was a bullpen game and Stroman wasn’t called. Game 4 was a blowout and he wasn’t asked to help rest the bullpen arms. What’s going on here?
idk why we putting this all on stroman, yanks made a bad signing and it was not like we expected to have an ace on this contract. without gleyber and the piss poor defense i imagine he throws his standard slash line and no one is really that mad about his performance (although its still a slight overpay) acting like its all his fault and its a culture issue is a little crazy hes just not needed anymore its business. (im also not saying hes never brought culture issues, just that this year it clearly wasnt the problem hes just not worth his contract)
Stroman is good and its sad that player errors aren't taken into consideration when looking at these games so nerds like this only look at basline stats when making these videos. Let it go focus on someone else.
@@Fiddletenniswouldn’t make sense for a player option to be activated 2 years prior. He needs 140 innings to be able to opt in to 2026. But anyways, not sure why the yankees didn’t see him as a problem already. Has not really even that expensive compared to other pitchers.
@@Fiddletennis That isn’t true, if Stroman pitches 140 innings this following year, he automatically can have 2026. That has nothing to do with what the team wants.
I've criticized some of your attempts at humor before. So credit where credit is due: 1) the avocado on toast analogy was a good one; 2) the "no hablo englais" bit was also decent. Would have been even better if you added "today" to make it a more direct play on Rendon.
Before the Yankees signed Paul Goldschmidt, I thought for sure they would have offered to eat half of Stroman's salary to send him to the Giants in exchange for 1b Lamonte Wade Jr.
hate to say i told ya so. as a cubs fan, when they let Stroman walk.. i told fellow cubs fan we’re better off. i also knew that by the end of 24 NY would be *tired* of all his nonsense
Bro hes been solid most his career. Hes a big game pitcher. Hes been 3.3-3.7 most years. just had a harder year this past season but was definitely a better option than Rodon LMAO. especially against LA
If the Yanks couldn't find a way to unload Sto before last year's trade deadline, they probably won't. Is it worth it to DFA him and eat the salary just to reclaim the roster spot?
It’s why I laughed at Stroman opting out of his Cubs deal. The only way it made sense for him is if he knew he was cooked and just wanted one extra year in the league at a higher AAV than he would have gotten in free agency.
Stroman Twitted himself out of Toronto went he went public with his thoughts after he and the Jays went to arbitration. He didn’t like hearing what the Jays had to say about him and his value. AJ Dickey referred to him, obliquely, as high rent. High pertinence is what he meant, I think.
Really nice video I talk… I’m on the West Coast. Don’t know much about Marcus Stroman except a lot of the Giants fans thought They should sign him. Even some of the Podcasters. Glad they didn’t… Very enlightening video.
Him wearing a Diddy shirt while promoting a children's book is just icing on the cake 😄

hate to say i told ya so. as a cubs fan, when they let Stroman walk.. i told fellow cubs fan we’re better off. i also knew that by the end of 24 NY would be *tired* of all his nonsense
Bro hes been solid most his career. Hes a big game pitcher. Hes been 3.3-3.7 most years. just had a harder year this past season but was definitely a better option than Rodon LMAO. especially against LA

“Settle down lil bro”
Post nut clarity was CRAZY
Never like them signing him in the first place …bad signing and he’s horrible….He was a cheap arm they thought
If the Yanks couldn't find a way to unload Sto before last year's trade deadline, they probably won't. Is it worth it to DFA him and eat the salary just to reclaim the roster spot?
Just sign world series champ Brent Honeywell
Cashman is taking cues from my fantasy trade proposals. I give you my worst players, and you give me your best players. Sound fair?
It’s why I laughed at Stroman opting out of his Cubs deal. The only way it made sense for him is if he knew he was cooked and just wanted one extra year in the league at a higher AAV than he would have gotten in free agency.
Stroman Twitted himself out of Toronto went he went public with his thoughts after he and the Jays went to arbitration. He didn’t like hearing what the Jays had to say about him and his value. AJ Dickey referred to him, obliquely, as high rent. High pertinence is what he meant, I think.
Never liked him. His whole personality and wack swag is just so unlikable.
Really nice video I talk… I’m on the West Coast. Don’t know much about Marcus Stroman except a lot of the Giants fans thought They should sign him. Even some of the Podcasters. Glad they didn’t… Very enlightening video.
As a Cardinals fan we need pitching and bullpen help!!!
As a Cardinals fan we don't need that disaster on our team
They can’t give him away. Might as well start him and if he Bronx bombs 😂 release him
buuuut you need starters in modern baseball. You can never have enough of them. They had a literal report on it a few days back.
Exactly just look at the dodgers this last season, they had something like two full rotations worth of mlb ready starters on the IL
Forget his character issues, his fastball couldn't play on a decent high school team... another terrible Cashman move
He had a sub 4 era into September 🤦🏼♂️
Can we talk about Rizzo covering the base? 0:55
