The New York Yankees are on the verge of trading for Curtis Granderson. He will provide the Yanks with power and speed. This move will make their aging outfield significantly more athletic. Melky Cabrera will move over to a corner outfield postion where he has more speed and a much stronger arm than Nick Swisher. If this does get done it will be a three team trade between the New York Yankees, Detroit Tigers, and Arizona Diamondbacks.

It will look something like this…

Yankees get Curtis Granderson from Detroit

Diamondbacks get Max Scherzer from Arizona and Austin Jackson from New York

Arizona gets Edwin Jackson from Detroit and Ian Kennedy from New York

I think this will be a good trade for all three teams. I mentioned how Granderson can help the Yankees above. Detroit frees up money and adds two great young players with a lot of upside. Arizona adds a proven starter in Jackson and an up and coming prospect in Kennedy.
