Alderson & Cashman Talk Trade Deadline

By Mike Axisa | June 9, 2012 at 10:28am CDT

The Yankees beat Johan Santana and the Mets in the 2012 Subway Series opener last night, but before the game each club's GM answered questions about the upcoming trade deadline. Let's round up their quotes…

  • "If we're in the race, as I expect we will be, I don't believe that money is going to be an issue for us," said Mets GM Sandy Alderson when asked about making additions during a chat with fans at MLB.com. "We'll be looking for ways to help the ballclub. It's very possible we'll still need help in the bullpen at that time, but there may be some other areas of need that will emerge and we'll have to address."
  • In a MLB.com chat with fans, Yankees GM Brian Cashman said his "preference would be not to do anything" at the trade deadline. "You'd like to have everything here in front of you, but that's never the case," he added. "So right now it's way too early to tell you what's lacking … It's too early for me to say what we're looking for (at the deadline) just yet, if anything."

    Even if the Mets are still hanging around at the deadline, any major additions are probably a poor choice. With the way the Nats and Braves are built, both in the majors and minors, sacrificing the farm for an outside shot at a playoff birth this year is just about the worst thing that could be done right now. Adding a couple low key bullpen pieces would be a good idea though, and there are plenty available that could serve as reinforcement to that god-awful bullpen.

       Exactly!  Very well put.  Let’s not get carried away and fool around with the farm . . .

      Exactly . . . Very well put!  Let’s not overreact with some short-sided trade because we have an “outside shot”.

    met must sell, sell, sell, and sell.  i hate to admit this, but harvey, mejiia, familia, and flores will all be busts, and this is wright’s career year.  signing niese longterm was a bad move.  the only true blue chipper is wheeler.

    theo is doing it right in chicago by making it no secret that they are sellers, and they still sell out games. the only reason that alderson is on the fence is b/c he still wants to sell tickets, but hardly anyone is going to citi field even when they are winning.

    we are drastically outperforming our expectations, so now is the perfect opportunity to take advantage and stock up our farm with high end talent.  this is almost a rerun of reyes’s season last year…buy or sell?  judging by the draft picks we got, i can all agree that we should have sold on reyes (and i was one of the ones who wanted us to keep him)
