Message: [QUOTE="Dooley, post: 3178027, member: 2920"] Scherzer might be too much for the Yankees from a trade value standpoint. Would definitely have to deal Frazier and Andujar...then throw in 3-5 top 30ish prospects to boot. He's dominating and the face of the franchise. Trading him after losing Harper would be tough for ownership to justify to that fanbase which already isn't all that great to begin with. Definitely should kick the tires though! I am completely fine with trading "less" by targeting MadBum. No, he's not the same pitcher as he was a few years ago from the mileage he has on his arm. But industry said the same thing about Verlander and now look at him. Yanks and Astros are two of the most analytic driven franchises in the game. If any team other than Houston can unlock vintage MadBum, I'd bet on the Yankees. Plus, man oh man, that postseason pedigree is so goddam tantalizing. [/QUOTE]
