Rival GM: "We want Jose Tabata!"
Brian Cashman: "Tabata? Please. We're a half-game out of first, we've won eight of nine, Matsui is swinging a bat, Cabrera is awesome. You'll get nothing and like it."
Rival GM: "Give us Beam and Smith and Duncan."
Cashman: "Keep dreaming, brother. I have two Class A infielders and Matt DeSalvo for you. I'll throw in a tour of Monument Park."
The longer the Yankees stay hot, the more leverage Cashman has when out-of-their-mind types like Jim Bowden ask for Philip Hughes and Jose Tabata. The Yankees could stand to get a corner outfielder who can hit fifth or sixth. But as I write this, they're second in all of baseball in runs scored, second in OBP and fifth in OPS.
