Meeting Week for the Yanks

With the GM meetings over, this is the week Brian Cashman will meet with his top advisors like Mark Newman, Billy Eppler, Stick Michael, Damon Oppenheimer and maybe some others go over options and preferences for this offseason. They will discuss everything they discovered about the markets at the meetings and set up their big board. They will decide what they are willing to do for Damon, Matsui and Pettitte, as well as their other inhouse free agents. They'll also decide, though I'm fairly sure they already have, what they want to do with Aroldis Chapman, as well as ranking and rating their interest in the other FA's, and expected December FA's from the non-tender list. Finally, they'll discuss trade targets and which assets they are willing to deal for players like Granders and Halladay or whoever. Should be an interesting week. Go Yanks!

Buster says the Yanks aren't interested in Holliday and will only be in it to up the bidding.

Mo has all the help he needs, it would be crazy for the Yanks to buy bullpen with all the arms they have up and on the way.

I seem to remember us not being interested in Teixeira either...

Mo absolutely needs some experienced help, IMO. Robertson and Marte alone won't suffice.

BTW, per Jon Heyman, it may be Yankees vs. Mets in a competition to get Roy Halladay... and he thinks we're willing to give up Hughes.

We were interested in Tex the whole time. Heyman has been trying to trade Hughes for 4 years. He's still made that I told him we wouldn't trade Hughes for Santana two years ago, and we didn't.

Phil how serious you think we are in on Halladay?

We only make trades that make sense, so that's exactly how serious we are. In other words, not serious enough to hurt ourselves for a guy who will be a FA next year.

Would we consider re-upping him? For 3 years it's not terrible.

Maybe. He has a no-trade clause, so he might be able to leverage an extension out of the new team if he wants one.
