2012 Official Trade Talks and Rumors Thread III

Yanks 2013 OF

Gardy
Grandy
Ichiro

Trade Grandy and then sign Bourn. This will bring us back to 1982 and ygou know how that year went.....

Why do you seem to discount making trades? You do not know what Cashman has up his sleeve. Do not be so closed-minded.

Gardner grandy itchy is perfectly fine for this one strange year. Grab some leftover vet as a 4th OF.

Why doesn't anyone realize this?

Most people have Swisher's dick up their azz.

Why are the Yanks NOT targeting DAN HAREN? He pitches well in the American league and he's just entering his prime.

Yep, I'd overpay for one year.

Since the Marlins are interested in shedding some payroll I have an idea:

Gardner & Nunez for LoMo & Nolasco

Will save the Marlins the 11M for the last year on Nolasco's contract, and enable them to get rid of LoMo.... Thoughts?... condemnations since this is my first post in a long long time?

Just need a bat to replace the lost production of Swisher. Worried about just signing Ichy....would rather save trades for the rotation....a 38 yr old and a 40 something is a slight concern unless the rotation is stacked with another ace...think back in 1998....how many #1 starters were in rotation? We need another.....

I think most people are still hoping to improve in at least one way. Doesn't seem likely though

Why does everyone want Itchy so bad? I wasn't that impressed with him and he hasn't been relevant since 2009.

Of course we would all like to improve every spot, but reality is that the Yanks are a 'one year deal shop' for the next two winters. There is no changing that.

And there will be PLENTY of those guys sitting around the bargain bin late winter.

So, people are whining about Swisher leaving, like he's some unreplaceable hall of famer, is just silly.

He wants huge years and huge loot. Not gonna happen here.

Move on.

Topic are mixing too much so I'm going to close this and just use the offseason thread for all discussion.
