WILL THE YANKEES TRADE FOR MATT GARZA?

Doubtful. After what we've seen this off-season, I highly doubt the Yankees move on Matt Garza unless of course the Yankees offer guys that will not affect their day in and day out operations down on the farm.

The Cubs asking price in "incredibly high", according to David Kaplan of Comcase Sportsnet Chicago. Read his Facebook HERE. He also writes:

"...talks on Matt Garza are heating up. Lots of interest because he is under control contractually for two more season...Toronto, Yankees, Boston are all involved."

I don't know. I see the Yankees inquiring but I can't imagine they go for Garza at this point. Then again, let's not forget the friendship Brian Cashman and Theo Epstein have. Now that they don't have to be enemies, then why be enemies? Maybe there is a common ground for both to make a move, but like I mentioned in WHY THE REDDICK TRADE BRINGS OUT THE GENIUS IN CASHMAN, why would he unload top prospects now, especially if all the truly great pitchers are gone?
The latest on Garza comes from Jim Bowden from ESPN who says that the Blue Jays and Cubs are currently the teams talking about a deal. Read that HERE. So that's where we are. If anything happens, you'll be the first to know.
