I was thinking Weathers...Rhodes...something like that.

JHJ never entered my mind as a possible trade target. Mercy.

I guess with Gardner hurt JHJ is just the obvious trade target?

The Yankees should have got Dickerson. He would be very useful for them.

Not sure who Montero is, so I don't know if this is a joke since he's their number one prospect or if you are being legit.

Little help please.

He isn't coming our way. He is one of the 10 best prospects in baseball.

Well, Taveras and Gonzalez at the top of the order are such a potent combo; no room for JHJ there anymore!

Re: Yankees Acquire Jerry Hairston Jr

I really thought our window dressing move was going to be one of the bullpen guys.

Hum....I guess Jerry didn't have enough HAVOC after all.
