Yanks are taking offers for Curtis Granderson

OBP .319
and due 15,000,000 for 2013 I might add.
No thanks.

I think the Yankees actually are motivated by cutting salary. Cashman has been told to get under the luxury threshold and Granderson makes a pretty penny. Unless you feel like spending $15MM on him, no thanks.

I think they're trying to get under the tax limit by 2014, so getting a return of cheap talent that could help them do that then is probably more important than saving all of Granderson's salary in '13.

Frazier (from New Jersey) would be a great local boy done good fan favorite. He'd mash, IMO, in that lineup. Add Mesoraco and that's more than enough for one year of Granderson.

Trading our 3B and our C of the future for 1 year of Granderson?

We'd likely be worse in 2013, and who would play 3B next year. Cairo?

THis would be the type of trade that would set the Reds contention movement back some years.

I wouldn't give either player for Granderson, much less both.

The only way I do it is for a middling prospect or Stubbs or Heisey, and the Yankees pay $8M-$10M of his salary.
