Now in return, JP Sears, Ken Waldichuk, Luis Medina and Cooper Bowman are going to the A's. As CBS Sports writes:

"Sears is an interesting starting pitching prospect who will get more of an opportunity in Oakland than he would have in New York. "

The Yankees needed to bolster their pitching and they have.  

Bleacher Nation writes:

"Montas, 29, has been excellent this year when healthy, and he comes with an extra year of control. Lou Trevino, a reliever, has terrible results this year, but the peripherals have all mostly been pretty normal. Montas, one of the best starters on the market, is obviously the main attraction here, though."

Nice work getting Montas.  By the way, Joey Gallo? Still a Yankee. Why? Because we can't trade this guy away if we wanted to. And trust me, we want to.
