RUMOR: AN UPGRADE THE YANKEES COULD USE IS IN MIAMI

Will the Yankees make a trade for a pitcher that most likely could use and he plays for the Miami Marlins?

It's way too early to say, but this is a name you are probably not familiar with, but a guy that can definitely help this Yankee team.  No, it's not a hitter, but if this move is pulled off correctly, he will help for sure. His name is Tanner Scott.  Inside the Pinstripes writes that this idea originally came from Joel Sherman:

"New York Post's Joel Sherman posed a hypothetical deal for the Yankees involving sending young slugger Jake Bauers to the Miami Marlins for fireballer Tanner Scott.

"MLB Trade Rumors has Bauers pegged for $1.7 million in his first year of arbitration, plus he has three years of control," Sherman said. "That is the profile of a player that fits the Marlins. But do they like his potential upside? Bauers just turned 28 last week, yet six organizations already have brought him in, including heavily analytical groups in Tampa Bay, Cleveland, Seattle, and The Bronx. There is clearly something in his metrics that teams like..."

A few things: Scott is a lefty. Scott has great fastball velocity and has a 2.31 ERA in 74 outings and he's just 29 years old.  

The Yankees are looking for make some moves to improve this team.  While this is just an idea, it's a good one as far as I'm concerned.  Something the Yankees should absolutely consider.  November's coming... there is every indication the Yankees will be busy this off season. Let's hope.
