The least we can do in thanks is to help them out. To that end, and to give Andre a break, here are a few key pieces of inside info for the Yankees.
Cashman might or might not trade for Gerrit Cole (who is rumored to be on his way to Houston) or Patrick Durbin. Or they will sign Yu Darvish, although I doubt they will. And they are willing to include Miguel Andujar in a trade for Manny Machado.
Sources tell me the only hold up in the deal is that the Yankees are reportedly set on not including Andujar in any trade.
That should be good for at least three articles a piece from Joel and both Jo(h)ns. Now run with it boys.
