Yankees Trade Deadline Thread

[Meh]

The Yankees have got pretty lucky during their down season. Great trades have paid off. Some of our prospects have taken big steps forward, even though we've dealt with injuries. ARod gone. McCann clears waivers, I hope we can get rid of him, but I wouldn't just give him away for nothing. Should be extremely interesting to see how this all plays out. Money coming off the books. Interesting trade options still on the team for this year, this off season, and next trade deadline. Extremely excited right now. Wade, Fowler, and Adams are lower tier guys who don't get attention in the media, but they have been really awesome, all three taking big steps forward, huge fan of Fowler.

Fowler is really looking like a prospect. 21 in AA, he started out the year more as a doubles guy with speed. His HR swing has come on of late with 5 since the ASB and now his SLG is up to near .450. He has the most EBH on the farm with 44, 10 of those being triples. He's at 20SB, but gets caught a bit too much (11CS). He has the goods to stay in CF long term as well. If there wasn't such a glut of OFers in AAA, he'd have probably been promoted by now.

Adams really has come on. He has 9 starts where he didn't allow any runs. He's had 7 starts where he has allowed exactly one run. He has allowed 4 or more runs in a game only 3 times, and only once since April 19th. High end velocity, dominant slider, needs to develop changeup. But he looks like a beast
