First we get condemned because there is so little back-and-forth on the Yankee blog, and then we get condemned for having a back-and-forth. As for Cano, as I said for a few years, my feelings are to include him in a package for a stud pitcher. There are 2nd basemen available who don't walk around like somebody owes them something. Nor do they live off a batting average built on a usual 6 week stretch where he bats 600. Anyway, just my rant and have a Happy Thanksgiving to one and all....
NYI, If You want to see the Yankees trade Cano for a stud pitch, You are going to have to hope that Cashman can do a better job selling Him to prospective trading partners than You just did in your post .
From the Daily News on the 2010 Yankee outlook: ***********************************************
Robinson Cano's abysmal postseason confirmed what scouts say about him, that he's an undisciplined free swinger who is always going to put up numbers during the season against a lot of mediocre pitching, but should be an easy out on a big stage against elite pitching.
It doesn't mean the Yankees should trade him. Indeed, he improved his focus in 2009 after his late-season benching in 2008, and for the most part played a brilliant second base. But it does mean the Yankees shouldn't rule it out, in case some team sees him as their No. 3 hitter and is willing to give up a golden arm for him.
So then NYI are You saying that you'd only want to see Yankees move Cano if it were for an ace pitcher in return ? what if the trading partner wanted more than Cano ? ( the Yankees are loaded after all )
