In 2000, the Yankees didn't wait for the trading deadline.

The Yankees were waiting until the end of his tour to make a formal offer, believed to be for four years and about $40 million.

The Yankees have been waiting all year for this.

Three days have passed now, and the Yankees are still waiting to open.

Upon reflection, he said that the Yankees waited too long with their offer.

The Yankees know it vividly and cannot wait to leave.

The Yankees could wait until closer to the deadline before making a move.

So the Yankees will wait until next year again.

Now the Yankees can only wait and wonder when they will finally begin to hit with consistency.

Therefore, if the Yankees wait until after this season to trade him, they would get little or nothing in return.
