"The Mariners have sampled from the rich waters of the Yankees’ farm system before, scooping up Ben Gamel for a pair of teenage pitching prospects and James Pazos for Zack Littell, who the Yankees flipped to the Twins for like 20 innings of Jaime Garcia. The Yankees: that kid at lunch willing to trade you a bag of chips and a whole can of Coke because you have a fun-sized version of a candy bar they haven’t had before."

Seattle salivates over trading with the Yankees. And, yes, they would demand prospects just for taking Jacoby Ellsbury off our hands.

    COOPERSTOWN CASHMAN NEEDS TO GET TO WORK.

    #2) ELLS MUST GO. (NO MATTER WHAT).

    #3) GLEYBER MUST BE IN THE EVERYDAY LINEUP ASAP. (THIS IS WHY HEADLEY MUST GO).

    #4) GET OTANI - PLUG HIM INTO THE ROTATION AND MAKE HIM THE EVERYDAY DH....IF HE DOESN'T HIT LEFTIES, JUST MAKE GARRETT COOPER, OR MIGUEL ANDUJAR THE RIGHTY DH.

    #5) TANAKA NEEDS TO STAY (AFTER A CLEAN PHYSICAL)- ADD A YEAR TO HIS CONTRACT. THAT SHOULD MAKE EVERYONE HAPPY.....WE NEED BIG GAME WINNERS HERE.

    #6) ADD ANOTHER RELIABLE STARTER VIA TRADE, OR FREE AGENCY.

    #7) ADD A TOUGHER LEFTY RELIEVER IN THE PEN (CHASEN SHREVE OUT/MAYBE JUSTIN WILSON IN)?

    #8) GET A MANAGER THAT DOESN'T KEEP TAKING PITCHERS OUT 1 OR 2 BATTERS TOO LATE.

  2. If they take Headley too, Cash should really be looking into this.

  3. Ben Gamel hit a stellar .275 with 11 big flies. He also pilfered a solid 4 bags and was a walk machine, with 36 free passes!

  4. I like ALL-CAPS' agenda.

    It would be ridiculous for the Yanks to even consider anything like the Seattle pipe dream. As has been suggested here, a better idea would be to pay some of the salaries to deal Jacoby and Heady Lamar.

    Mike Ford has terrific potential, even if he did go to Princeton. Cave and McKinney both deserve a solid shot at OF slots next spring, and should at least be back-ups.

    Whatever one thinks of the Sonny Gray-Toddfather-Jaime Garcia Massacres, they opened up enough room on the 40-man to protect every worthy prospect liable to the Rule 5 Draft.

    The big focus now has to be on making the rotation playoff ready. Yes, I guess I would risk something more on Tanaka, after this October. But really, how much greater an offer than $22-23 mill a year is anybody going to make him?

    Give CC something and invited him back—just don't count on him. Give Adams and Sheffield a real shot, and maybe others.

    Sign Yu "Whirling" Darvish? Certainly looked awful in the Series. But it could be he will regain arm strength steadily as time passes from the operation. Might be worth the risk.

    Love the Otani idea.
