    Prado can be one hell of an asset, guy plays a multitude of positions to include 1st base. Give Girardi a bit more flexibility but the Yankees starting staff still needs some help.

    Actually I'd be okay with Prado. A 30 year old career 290 hitter with some pop 10-15 HRs that can play 3rd, 2nd & some outfield.

    IMO I think this is a wash. Prado is better then both Johnson & Roberts while Drew is worse then Johnson & Roberts.

    ...I don't see how they could have landed a front end starter, much less 2 of them.

    Not without trading away the future captain Gardner and Betances.
