Via Twitter, Joel Sherman of the New York Post summarizes what the New York Yankees have accomplished in the past 24 hours.
Over past 2 days #Yankees add Berkman, Wood, Kearns and roughly $5.3M to payroll for 2 prospects not in their top 10 … and 2 players to be named or maybe cash in one instance.
The Yankees have strengthened their lineup, their bench and their bullpen. They surrendered only one quality prospect (Mark Melancon) and did not add signficantly to the payroll to do it. Pretty good job by Brian Cashman, I’d say.
