Gerrit Cole looked every bit like the ace the Yankees paid for, and his dominance is creating a fascinating debate as Tarik Skubal trade rumors continue to swirl.

Plus: Giancarlo Stanton is nearing a return, George Lombard Jr. is hitting a rough patch, and what it all means for the Yankees moving forward.
