As a Yankee fan, I'd propose loaning Sabathia, Cano and Rivera to the Nationals in exchange for promised sign-and-trades when Harper and Strasburg hit free agency.

Ha! I'm pretty sure if Chipper were to come out of retirement it wouldn't be for the Yankees. The Braves apparently beat that drum too and Chipper reportedly wasn't remotely interested.

One of the local sports talk radio guys was talking about the Yankees and said "the Yankees have Joe Pepitone playing first base now". I couldn't help but laugh.“Two things are infinite: the universe and human stupidity; and I'm not sure about the universe.”

Jeff Passan of Yahoo! Sports reports that the Yankees are in trade talks with the Angels regarding Vernon Wells and a deal "could be done today."
Passan adds that "lots of money would go back to New York" in the deal, which, of course, is a given with Wells having $42 million left on his contract. Wells has a full no-trade clause and has embraced a backup role with the Angels, but perhaps he'd be willing to waive it for what would be an uptick in playing time. The 34-year-old would figure to play pretty regularly in left field until Curtis Granderson returns. Wells has batted just .222/.258/.409 over the last two seasons.

AL West Twitter feeds are pretty upset right now. Everyone was excited about having Vernon to beat up on.
Seriously, though, Wells is worth keeping an eye on in Yankee Stadium. He could be fantasy relevant again there.
