THE YANKEES ARE ACQUIRING GUYS LIKE NUTS TODAY!

The Yankees are making mad moves today!  Players are being signed, players are being designated for assignment and it's all to better the club.  You can criticize Brian Cashman all you want, but things are really moving lately and I appreciate what he's been doing.  I realize that when it comes to this team, it's off-seasons like this that make me realize that he's the GM and I'm just a fan.  Anyway, check this out:

Jon Heyman Tweeted HERE that the Yankees have traded $75,000 to the Colorado Rockies for Reid Brignac.  To make that move, the Yankees had to designate Alberto Gonzalez for assignment. 

That is being tweeted by Andy McCullough of the Star-Ledger HERE. Gonzalez will always be remembered for pitching for the Yanks, staying a week and now possibly being claimed by another team right now.  Let's see what happens. Hopefully he'll clear waivers and go back down to AAA.

Also, I just read on CLNS Radio.com, HERE, that the Yankees have just signed Josh Bell to a minor league deal.  Bell is a third baseman who, according to them, "Bell will most likely report to AAA Scranton/Wilkes-Barre.

Bell, 26, was released by the White Sox on May 7th after appearing in fifteen games for AAA Charlotte to start the season. In 55 at-bats, he hit .273 with 4 RBI."

Oh, and not only that, there was other movement today...

The Los Angeles Angels of Anaheim have claimed former Yankee Chris Nelson off waivers. The Angels Tweeted that HERE. The Tweet is below:

Holy moves... enjoy the rest of your Weekend.
