NYY - CLE

[erick1174]

  receive:

OF Arturo Esposo - 68/90 - 22yo
CLE 3rd Round Pick - #87
CLE 4th Round Pick - #96
CLE 5th Round Pick - #143
OF Graham Reynolds 87 - 30yo - $9.2m thru '95




  receive:


OF Brent Walley 92 - 26yo - $500k thru arb in '95
$10m Cash



Yankees accept.  Obviously like Walley still, but just had a numbers crunch in the OF and wanted to replenish the picks I lost in other trades.   Reynolds is added more as a salary dump for Cleveland, though he still has some value.

It's basically like the Reynolds trade never happened and I'm betting on Walley to produce now that he's peaked.
