YANKS LOOKING AT TOP RELIEVERS AT THE DEADLINE

The Yankees are good, but they just want to be better and you have to respect that.  In the latest blown save by Clay Holmes, it's no surprise a new revelation has come out about the Yankees wanting to bolster their relievers down the stretch. And it was Jon Heyman who had the nugget and I wanted to share it all with you.

The New York Post and Jon Heyman writes:

"In addition to Marlins shutdown reliever Tanner Scott, the Yankees are believed to like White Sox reliever-turned starter Garrett Crochet, who leads the AL with 103 K’s...Scott will go, and is believed to be drawing interest from the Phillies, Orioles, Dodgers and others.

The closer market isn’t bad with five viable options possibly hitting the block: Scott, Kenley Jansen, Mason Miller, Carlos Estevez and Michael Kopech.

Teams are being told the A’s have no great desire to trade Miller, but interested teams are hopeful Oakland may re-evaluate after the All-Star break."

And so for me, this is just a lot of names and really speculation. I mean, there is no doubt the Yankees will try and pick up a few pieces.  I would assume Gleyber Torres or a Anthony Rizzo is at the top of their list to trade, but it's only June... a lot can happen.  For now... we see if the relievers in the Yankee pen can hold it down in the meantime.

Stay tuned.
