Yanks need PITCHING!!!! Trade Speculation Thread....

[Chi_archie]

NYY don't have to give up the farm if the price isn't right.

Garcia is hitting 95+ mph again, he's found his stuff, goes back into the rotation with...
Nova
Hughes
Kuroda

Plus Adam Warren just got called up, and Russell Martin says he has three plus pitches, good command, and is major league ready.
They also have Manny Banuleos and Dellin Betances, not to mention the kid they got in the Pineda deal, Juan Campos.

Also, Sabathia's muscle pull is not serious, Girardi says if this was a September pennant race, he wouldn't even be DL'ed.
Pettite will be back in six weeks.

If they do make a trade, I want Wandy in pinstripes

yeah I think I had a knee jerk over reaction to the injury. Yanks have a little breathing room for sure... and can throw some guys in there internally for the next 2-6 weeks.

that being said. I'm not completely closing the door on trade possibilities..

even with their top starting 5 and NO more injuries this year, Its just a serviceable starting staff.... even though they've been great in June.

If i'm the Yanks, I would like to add one STUD to this staff if at all possible, even if it costs a few prospects and a good position player from the MLB roster..

[Chi_archie]

[alling]

Cashman said he didn’t want to make a trade to replace Pettitte in the rotation.

Yanks bats are fine,now if they could only get some pitchers worth of shit.This may be one of the worst starting rotations we have seen in years!

[Br0nxer]

Who are the Yanks gonna pay prospects through the nose for?

Garza, Greinke, Maholm?

should the Phillies give up on 2012 and just sell off their pitching, to start the rebuild?



I'd love to see the Yanks trade for AJ Burnett and send prospects and MORE $ to the Pirates for AJ, Correria, Hanrahan, Bedard, and Juan Cruz for the entire yanks AA roster!!!! lol

not trading prospects for anyone

the big guys are untouchable

betances banuelos sanchez and a couple others

zero chance they trade them. king felix would be the only guy you might be able to pry one away for

yankees are not the spenders they were in the past with the boss gone. these prospects are going to keep the payroll down for years when they finally come up

[the-phenomenal-1]

i perdicted it

told ya derek lowe would be a yankee

[Chi_archie]

decent pick up for the yanks.

forgot about D-Lowe
