skyking162 The Yankees should look to improve any way they can. If you need to give up three wins on the pitching side to gain five on the hitting side, I think it's worth it, if money and contract length are equal.
Plus, with the loss of ARod and expected return to career levels by Jorge Posada, the offense will be significantly worse than last year without any improvements.

... The Marlins will need a third baseman in return, so Betemit is completely expendable. But then, if the price is (hypothetically) Phil Hughes and not Ian Kennedy, does Cashman do this? Probably not. If the price is I-Ken, Betemit and Melky, then Miggy just might be a Yankee. But that trade would create a host of other problems, like who the Yanks daily centerfielder would be.

That may be just a ...
