The fact that Ryan Howard, Prince Fielder, Pujols and at least 2-3 other top names in the game weren't traded for A prospects says improvement for me.

But the fact remains, CC and Hughes are hurt, the 1 and 2 starters. They trade the #3 starter.
What staff are they left with?
What GM would do that to the team?

The Yankees 4 and 5 starters are surely very low rated in the game. So they are now the aces during the injuries to the top dogs?

Who plays first and short?

I know many want to justify the trades there, but I have to respectfully disagree here.

In any event, the trade logic will be a hot button topic around here for sure. lol
