IS SWISHER ON THE INDIANS RADAR?

Fox Sports has a story out hinting that the Indians and several other teams called the Yankees about Nick Swisher. Read about it HERE. I read it and thought, wow, I wonder what the Yankees and the Indians talked about?

Just the other day we wrote WHY IT'S ABOUT TO GET HOT & HEAVY FOR CESPEDES and of course discussed the Yankees crowded and talented outfield already and how someone like Yoennis Cespedes, while a perfect addition to the Yankees, may not fit unless some of the "dead weight" was cut loose. Nick Swisher is by no means "dead weight", but his post season numbers are a big issue among Yankee fans. That being said, Nick is the Bronx Elvis and no one really wants to see him leave New York.
Mark Miller of Yahoo Sports writes: "Fox Sports reports that the "Cleveland Indians are one of several clubs that have called" the Yanks about trying to make a deal for the 31-year-old who has hit 185 homers since joining the big leagues with the Oakland Athletics back in 2004.

The Yankees, though, aren't likely to trade Swisher, who is set to make $10.25 million next season, Fox notes, because the team doesn't have a "major-league ready outfield prospect" right now."

My take? You can't assume anyone on the Yankees is untouchable. What do you think? Would you give up Nick Swisher? Stay tuned for this story right here on Bleeding Yankee Blue.
