June 27, 200421 yr We are looking for staring pitchers. The Yankees are looking for starting pitchers. Garcia and Ortiz are both available. Of course, the Yanks are going to be interested. They should be.
June 27, 200421 yr Boss' blowup may spark Yanks to deal The Yankees are continuing their search for starting pitching help, with Freddy Garcia and Russ Ortiz the two top names, but the search may have taken on more urgency yesterday when George Steinbrenner witnessed his team allow nine runs in a loss to the Mets. After the game, Steinbrenner told reporters in a brief interview, "Always need another pitcher," and there are other signs that the Yanks could be intensifying their efforts. An Atlanta Braves scout has been following the Yanks' Double-A team in Trenton for the bulk of the Thunder's recent seven-game home stand, perhaps to eye two of the Yanks' top prospects - catcher Dioner Navarro and infielder Robinson Cano. The Yankees have asked the Braves about Ortiz, a 21-game winner last year, but Atlanta is uncertain if it wants to deal the free-agent-to-be yet. The Yanks have also talked to the Mariners about Garcia, but it's unclear whether the Mariners have interest in the Yankees' prospects - or whether they are interested in making any deals right now. The Mariners have extensively scouted several levels of the Yankee system - including sending former GM Pat Gillick to Trenton. A Phillies scout has been at Thunder games recently, too, perhaps a sign Philadelphia would part with a pitcher such as Kevin Millwood.
June 27, 200421 yr A Phillies scout has been at Thunder games recently, too, perhaps a sign Philadelphia would part with a pitcher such as Kevin Millwood. That makes sense for the Yankees, but I can't see why Philly would be thinking about trading Millwood.
June 27, 200421 yr That makes sense for the Yankees, but I can't see why Philly would be thinking about trading Millwood. Millwood hasn't been pitching too well this season. I think if they could get a real good CF to replace Marlon Byrd, Millwood would be available. They were after Beltran for a while, but didn't want to giv up Gavin Floyd their stud pitching prospect.
June 27, 200421 yr Thanks guys. According to NY Daily News report, too lazy to link. Who cares anyway. Every time there's talk about the Sox doing a deal someone says the Spankees are gonna try for the same guy we're after. That's getting older than a redwood tree. Enough already.
