TALKS WITH THE PIRATES FOR BRYAN REYNOLDS STILL A REAL THING

I personally don't have a problem using guys like Oswaldo Cabrera or any of the other outfielders the Yankees picked up in the off-season to try and fill the void in left field. 

Think about it; guys like Rafael Ortega, Billy McKinney and Willie Calhoun... even Michael Hermosillo. And yea, there's even Aaron Hicks! Now the Yankees are gonna force Hicks on us to start the season in left because they want their money to work for them. But let's be honest, Hicks is trash and there are enough outfield "parts" that we have that can fill that void in the outfield. 

And that brings me back to Bryan Reynolds. I guess my question is, do we really and truly need the guy? Is this a media grown story?

Bleacher Report writes:

" MLB Network's Jon Morosi, the Yankees are among the teams that have contacted the Pittsburgh Pirates to discuss a trade for Bryan Reynolds.

Morosi noted the Yankees could be at a disadvantage in trade talks for Reynolds because they don't have a lot of high-quality starting pitching in their system, and the Pirates prefer starters if they deal the 27-year-old outfielder...

In 493 career games, Reynolds owns a .281/.361/.481 slash line with 74 homers and 239 RBI."

The numbers look good, but the trade could be important and maybe that's the biggest issue for the Yankees. Who do they give up to get Reynolds in pinstripes and also, is it worth it?

The Yankees are in a better position in left field than you think. But I guess we just need to wait and see what will happen next.

Stay tuned.
