Pirates/Yankees/Braves Deal About Complete
Bucco Blog is reporting tonight that the oft rumored three-team trade between the Yankees, Braves, and Pirates is all but complete.

Mike Gonzalez is taking a requested physical for the Yankees today and, if he passes, it looks like he will be a Yankee for Christmas. The Pirates will be getting Adam LaRoche and the Braves will get Melky Cabrera and at least one unidentified Pirate who is thought to be either Nate McLouth or Jose Castillo. There are a couple versions of this trade running according to Bucco Blog so more as we hear it.

So for the Yankees, it's Melky Cabrera for Mike Gonzalez? Great trade for them. What is Atlanta doing in this, exactly? Melky Cabrera is not that good.

Can we get in on this instead and get Gonzalez for EB? Very Happy

I don't know....I have had my eyes opened a bit on Cabrera.

He is VERY young. Take another look at his numbers from last season, especially his walk to K ratio. Then take another look at his age.

Also, check out the Yankees ZIPS projections over at Baseball Think Factory.

Might surprise you.
