Yanks Make Meaningless Trade

The Yanks just acquired Fernando Martinez for RHP Charles Basford.   Martinez was once a big time Met prospect, but has been but for the 2011 season, a below average major leaguer with the Mets and Houston.  So what does this mean, other than that Cash might have been bored?    It probably means Zoilo Almonte who was just called up today, will be sent back to AAA.  And it will also mean that SI will have to find another pitcher to take Basford's place on the roster.   Beyond that it's meaningless, and probably won't help.
