I'll go with B.

I'll go with a bit of both---Bentinendi had his feelings hurt when the Yanks didn't make him a higher priority while trying to resign Judge and land Rodon

It’s fun to be part of something where you’re desired, where you’re wanted. I’m looking forward to getting to know some guys, build relationships and get this thing going. From Day 1 in the offseason, there was communication. There was constant interest throughout the entire process. I was talking about it with Petey [Grifol], [general manager] Rick [Hahn] and the rest of the front office. It’s good to be with a team that wanted me from Day 1.

There's getting a new start--and there's who? :-)

I think not signing Benintendi to a contract like what the White Sox gave him was one of Cashman's better moves this off season. Not to mention that Cashman has found his man, Hicks:

"I suspect he will be the guy that emerges, because he's still really talented and everything's there."
