New York Yankees not expected to make trades before the end of the month

By Allan

Despite injuries to Andy Pettitte and Alex Rodriguez and the inconsistencies of the other players on the roster, don’t expect the New York Yankees to make any trades before the August 31st deadline to set playoff rosters.

“I’m not anticipating any more moves,” GM Brian Cashman said. “I think this is the team we’ve got and we’re looking forward to playing the string out and seeing where it takes us. Obviously, everybody in this game would like to be healthy. But that’s part of the game, not being healthy and dealing with it.”

Last week one Yankee told Kevin Kernan of the New York Times that the team needs another bat. The team was supposedly interested in Jose Guillen at the time, but he has since been acquired by the San Francisco Giants.
