A few hours ago, I asked you to chime in on what you thought was Brian Cashman’s best move as a GM. Now let’s move to the other side of the ledger and look at his worst mistakes. When I posed the question to my twitter followers, I received votes for the following errors:
1) [...]
During a discussion on Twitter about the relative merits of Nick Swisher and Andre Ethier, I received the following tweet from @champ11228:
The Swisher trade was probably Cashman’s best move.
I asked my followers what they thought about that statement, and a number of other moves received votes:
1) Trading for Alex Rodriguez
Yesterday, we learned that the Yankees are considering themselves out on Adam Dunn. The price on Scott Downs is ridiculously high. They offered the Diamondbacks Joba and two others for Dan Haren, but the Diamondbacks didn’t bite (which is surprising, considering the package they did get back from the Angels).
The Yankees have been [...]
Yesterday morning, there was a slew of Yankee trade news involving Joakim Soria, Adam Dunn, and Ted Lilly. Allow me to comment…
1. If it is true that the Yankees dangled Jesus Montero for Soria, then I’m none too happy. Using Montero as trade bait for a guy like Cliff Lee is understandable. [...]
Via Marc Craig, we get the following quote from Yankee GM Brian Cashman:
“Right now, there’s just a lot of things that aren’t plentiful,” he said. “I’ll make my phone calls and if they lead to something, great. But right now, it’s dead out there for us.”
This pretty much telegraphs what we’ve [...]
According to Buster Olney (h/t RAB), the Yankees are looking for someone who can play third while adding punch. Olney adds that they’re looking for a veteran, like Ty Wigginton.
Ty currently sports a .344 wOBA for the Orioles and was just named to the All-Star team. It’s worth noting, though, that his [...]
Since the Yankees re-signed Chad Gaudin yesterday, there had to be some sort of “casualty” on the Yankee roster. It turned out that Shane Lindsay was Designated for Assignment and Boone Logan was sent packing to Scranton. I think this is something just about everyone in the Yankee blogosphere is happy about.
The lefty’s [...]
Curtis Granderson is on the 15-Day Disabled List and will miss all of May.
Chan Ho Park has been a ghost after a few solid outings
Randy Winn has a -57 OPS+.
Nick Johnson is off to a slow start.
Javier Vazquez looks bad. Real bad.
Earlier this week, the Yankees claimed San Diego outfielder Chad Huffman off of waivers. The outfielder will play for AAA Scranton-Wilkes Barre. I’d never heard of Huffman before, so I thought I’d take a closer look at his numbers and see what the Yanks are getting.
A second round pick in 2006, [...]
In the last few weeks, the Yankees have been connected to a lot of outfielders. They signed one, Randy Winn, to a Major League deal and he will be the team’s fourth outfielder. Right now, Rule V Draft pick Jamie Hoffmann is the fifth outfielder the Yankees are going to give him at least Spring [...]
