Jonathan Loaisiga Promoted to Trenton

This is interesting and we may be seeing the Yankee pitching plan snapping into place.  The Yanks tonight promoted Jonathan Loaisiga to AA.  In Tampa, over 4 starts and 20 innings he had 26 K's and a 1.54 ERA. Like a surprising number of Yankee starters, he's not that tall at 5'11" but he's got velo and pitchability to the point where they had to protect him on the 40 this past winter because someone would have taken him in the rule 5 and stashed him in their pen.  We'll see if Justus is also getting promoted after last night's dominance, and Albert Abreu came back from his appendicitis surgery and was throwing 98 the other night.  So the Yanks really may not have to make a trade.

Sounds like a plan but we all know Cahsman will get an experienced arm such as a Hamels in July.

No trades for me too unless is Bumgarner, and that's only if he's pitching like he usually does. We'll see what happens in July.

We need a great draft and another great IFA period to re-stock, though, to be honest, they may have replaced what they traded between last year's draft and the 45 or so IFA's they've signed since.
