Guess which 2 prospects are heading to the Yankees...

Both players are not currently on the 40 man which I have linked above. So lets guess which 2 players are leaving in the Burnett trade.
Bonus: name the current player on the 40 man which will get dropped for AJ

dropped off the 40- Nunez

Grovatt & Latimore

Welker gets dropped. I want it to be Nunez but he’s a Rule V which makes me think the Pirates like him for some reason.

Freeman and Black

D-Cutch gets dropped. I want to say Moskos but I think the Bucs will want two lefty relievers on the 40 (besides Wilson). And I’d prefer it to be Nunez.

Saying DCutch lets me link this video, anyway. Keep your mind on the game!

I feel obligated to point out

Cole and Taillon are not on the 40-man roster… coincidence?

Haha

I should point out, for those who don’t know (not you King), that Cole is ineligible to trade. Which got me thinking (PTBNL style), did we ever complete the Ludwick deal with SD?

The glare of the spotlight is harsh, and the pressure that success breeds immense. We revere our heroes, but expect much. And criticism can come as easily as praise.

I think we sent cash

There was a report that we might, and I never heard of a player being sent.

i just have a gut feeling that Kingham or ZVR is going to be one of them. dont know why, but I just have that slight thought it will be. and then I think it will be Welker or Nunez coming off the 40 man

no chance it will be kingham, imo

I know it won’t, but just for some reason I feel he could be one of them. Like I said I don’t know exactly why, but its just my gut feeling. maybe it was just that breakfast I had this morning…

not meant as an insult, rinsana... ive just been dying to use that pic

by white angus on Feb 17, 2012 9:55 AM EST up reply actions

none taken. i know I didn’t use an sources or whatnot, I just think since hes off the 40 man, not in the top 10 prospects (to some sources at least), young arm, and had a great year last season that he would open up Cashman’s eyes as a potential piece of this trade. Granted, I know NH wouldnt want to get rid of someone like him who may have had the best season of any pitcher in the bucs minor league system last season, but its just a thought. you know what I mean?
