Cole Already a Yankee?

Okay, I'd normally add this rumor as a comment under the Cole Watch post, but with all the Giants stuff happening, I thought it deserved a mention at the top of the page. One of the BWAA writers, Chuck Johnson, is saying that Cole has been traded to the Yanks but they won't announce it because of a holiday moritrium.  He said he didn't know what was sent to the Pirtates or if anything else is coming from the Pirates.  He's a good source, so let's see if anything has happened.
