Seems like the Yankees will most likely acquire a pitcher before the July 31st trade deadline. As I posted earlier, the Yankees are looking into Pirates starting pitcher Ian Snell but, they are also looking at Seattle's starting pitcher Jarrod Washburn, whom they've liked for years. Around last year's deadline, the Yankees were interested in acquiring Washburn but, it never happened as a deal was never accepted. Washburn, who is owed $9.85 million this season, may or may not be dealt at the deadline because, Seattle has yet to determine whether or not they will be buyers or sellers come July 31st. If they become sellers, it may cost the Yankees a top prospect due to the fact that Washburn is having a stellar year. He's compiled an 8-6 record while posting a very respectable 2.71 ERA. Could be a nice, solid fit for the 5th spot.
Roy Halladay - The Yankees remain a long shot to land him. It would require sending Phil Hughes, Joba Chamberlain and possibly two other top prospects which is something I'm sure Cashman would not do. It's obviously costing the Yankees more to land Halladay then the Phillies. Don't see him coming here.
