Are we about to see a key domino drop in the Yankees’ offseason? Brian Cashman has stated publicly that he wants to add a starter, and though they’ve been quiet on that front in the free agent market,
it sounds like they could be making progress on the trade market. Yesterday’s reporting had the Yankees and Marlins discussing a deal that would send talented right-hander Edward Cabrera to the Bronx. Hopefully we actually get some action here, instead of the typical cycle of rumors without concrete movement. Today, as part of our Yankees Birthday series, Kevin profiles an interesting, less heralded figure in coach Art Fletcher. We’ll also get the latest in the our Free Agency series, with John remembering the less-than-ideal signing of Kenny Rogers, and Madison will put out the call for this week’s mailbag.
Questions/Prompts:
1. If the Yankees pull off a trade for Edward Cabrera, would you find that to be a satisfactory move to solidify the rotation, or would you have rather seen them sign one of the right-handers they had rumored interest in, Tatsuya Imai or Michael King?
2. Any Giants fans in disbelief that the team managed to win their final two games but worsen their draft pick?
