The Yankees and Braves Make a Trade: Earlier today the Atlanta Braves traded RHP Javier Vazquez to the Yankees for a three-player package that includes LF Melky Cabrera. Considering that Cabrera was being slotted to start in lef for the Yankees before the trade, does this mean that Matt Holliday or Jason Bay are back in play as potential free-agent signings for the Bombers? Or does it mean that the Yankees will revisit their attempts to re-sign Johnny Damon?
