Comments on: Would you make this trade? http://yankees.lhblogs.com/2007/03/27/would-you-make-this-trade/ A New York Yankees blog by Chad Jennings and the staff of The Journal News Fri, 10 Feb 2012 12:39:06 +0000 hourly 1 http://wordpress.org/?v=3.2.1 By: Jake http://yankees.lhblogs.com/2007/03/27/would-you-make-this-trade/comment-page-3/#comment-15000 Jake Thu, 29 Mar 2007 00:03:16 +0000 http://yankees.lhblogs.com/2007/03/27/would-you-make-this-trade/#comment-15000 Terrible idea Peter, but nice try. How about the team solves their issues internally instead of constantly trading for old men. Cashman needs to and will stick to his main plan, growing the farm and bringing in the youth. The season has not even started, so why push the panic button and force some unnecessary trade? Terrible idea Peter, but nice try.

And that's over 14+ years, not just a fluky 2004. Why isn't he on the team? He's done, just like Lieber. And oh by the way…Bernie Williams has “proven” he can play well in NY.

We have better options than Lieber, and Coste would be a marginal upgrade at best (and we're talking about backup catcher). This would just be a pointless trade. Come on.

His MiL numbers are good, but he is a lousey catcher. If the Phils are not interested in him, and the Yanks think he can help as a BUC, there are dozens of kids the Phils would probably take for a straight up trade. Why bring Farns into the equation? And Lieber? For 2007? Forgetaboutit! However, Torre hates poor defensive BUCs. Thats why we haven't chased Javy Lopez and a few other old guys with decent bats.

Can we grab him off waivers if that's the case? If so, why give up anything for him at all..... Didn’t someone say Coste isn’t going to make the Phillies?

I'm a villone guy and I wouldn't even do that. Coste has zero trade value. Besides Philly already got one of our young lefties(even though you make that trade 100 out of 100 times) “Henn for Coste, straight up.”
