Jeez. For crying out loud, can we at least entertain the idea of making a mid-season trade?
This one comes from Newsday:
Two relievers the Yankees might be interested in are the Rockies' Huston Street and the Astros' Jose Valverde. But the Rockies, who entering last night were 22-7 since Jim Tracy took over for Clint Hurdle, have played their way into wild-card contention and Astros owner Drayton McLane, whose team is playing better, isn't a fan of conceding in midseason.
Of course, this is all a moot point if you read a few paragraphs above, Brian Cashman:
"How I operate is to try to look from within to solve the problem..."
We didn't come out here to play tiddlywinks, son.
