Might the Yanks have an interest???
A Lefty, Young & Cheap.
Tarik Skubal trade rumors: 3 teams that should break the bank after Luis Castillo trade.
1) Tarik Skubal trade rumors: The Yankees need to call the Tigers right now
Nobody may have missed out more on acquiring Castillo than the mighty New York Yankees. For weeks, they have been a primary destination for Castillo. Unfortunately, they weren't willing to offer the Reds as much as the Mariners.
There are a lot of places the Yankees could go next. Skubal is one of those young and controllable arms they need to heavily consider to help bolster their rotation down the stretch.
For the Yankees, starting pitching has been a major strength. Gerrit Cole's ace-like performance for most of the year compliments well with the success they have gotten out of Jordan Montgomery and Jameson Taillon. Nestor Cortes has been the biggest and most pleasant of surprises for them, though. Together, with Luis Severino, they have been an awesome five-man team.
Severino is now on the IL and there are questions about the health and durability of other starters. Skubal does have minor league options as do a few other starters currently in the rotation, including the struggling Domingo German.
Skubal could provide the Yankees with insurance and even allow whoever their weakest link in the rotation to slot into the bullpen and maybe take over the role Michael King had with the team before he went down for the year.
I only threw a skubal when I had a sinus infection. Reminds me of a fellow who used to be our mechanic where I worked. He had the “talent” of being able to cover on nostril and launch a perfect snot ball on the floor. Other than that he was pretty disgusting. The poor lad met his fate one day when he got between a backing truck and a loading dock at another job… I don’t imagine that was a pretty way to go out…

Get him a ticket to San Diego right now or maybe Gallo likes brats?

Atlanta's Adam Duvall is out for the season, maybe they would take Gallo.

Atlanta's Adam Duvall is out for the season, maybe they would take Gallo. Wasn't Michael Kay mentioning that yesterday, that Atlanta was interested? Somebody on a broadcast talked about that. Imagine teams are bidding for Gallo's services!

I think there's a realistic chance we whiff in top targets, there aren't many out there and the demand is high. Hope it isn't the case, but bracing for a disappointing deadline for the Yanks. Would we be okay with a Quintana and 1-2 relievers?

Would we be okay with a Quintana and 1-2 relievers? Quintana would help the rest of the regular season since the pitching staff is little beat up right now, but would he make any difference in the post season? I don't think so.
