The Official New York Yankees Thread

I hope so

“A's right-hander Frankie Montas is the Yankees' focus in the starting pitcher trade market. That is crystal clear by now, and that's what MLB Network insider Jon Heyman wrote in the New York Post on Sunday. Heyman adds that while they would like to hang on to No. 1 prospect Anthony Volpe, the Yankees are "seemingly willing" to deal No. 2 prospect Oswald Peraza, another shortstop, to an Oakland club that is looking to land high-end prospects in return for Montas.”
 
Got a pitching prospect for Gallo

Beeter has a pair of pitches that grade as well above-average when at their best. He sits at 93-96 mph and touches 98 mph with a fastball that has good carry, and a high-spin low-80s curveball that plays off his heater well by dropping through the bottom of the zone. He also had a plus mid-80s slider that the Dodgers had him shelve in order to focus on his curve, and he can flash a solid low-80s changeup with some sink and fade but doesn't use it very often.

Got Montas for far less than it would have cost for Castillo, and he's as good (or better).

And then we get Bader for Monty
