Jackson, I knew I was missing someone. Gardner is still a Yankee. No one disputes that they keep some solid guys. It's the guys they trade that people think go all Willy Mo Pena on the teams acquiring them. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ILMOU Posted July 25, 2011 Share Posted July 25, 2011 The Yanks SHOULD be scouting Jackson. He's pretty much AJ Burnett at half the cost. Burnett would be their #2 in a playoff rotation, no? That's a joke for a team with a $220M payroll. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He and Hudson are prime examples why teams shouldn't give up on good young starters because of a few rough starts, especially when they've shown swing and miss stuff.

I don't think the Yankees necessarily "gave up" on Kennedy as much as really wanted the return in that trade. They gave up Kennedy and Jackson to get back Granderson. That seems like a fair price Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

southsider2k5 Posted July 25, 2011 Author Share Posted July 25, 2011 So what is left for the Yankees to match up with the sox? http://www.mlbtraderumors.com/2011/07/yank...medium=facebook Unless a no-doubt number one starter appears on the market, the Yankees have made it clear they won't move prospects Manny Banuelos, Dellin Betances, Jesus Montero, and Austin Romine, tweets Joel Sherman of the New York Post.
