A Biased Look at the New York Yankees, the Greatest Franchise in the History of Sports
[powered by WordPress.]
The rich always get richer. The Yankees solved two of their problems assuming this trade goes through. The Yankees get All Star outfielder Bobby Abreau and starting pitcher Cory Lidle for the Yankees first round draft pick in 2005 (C.J. Henry), reliever Matt Smith and a player to be named later. This was a classic salary dump by the Phillies as it looks like the Yankees will pick up the entirety of both player’s contracts.
Obviously this is huge, and tips the scales back in to the Yankees favor in the AL East.
