New York Post (registration required): " According to several industry sources, the Yankees would love to put A's outfielder Mark Kotsay in between Hideki Matsui and Gary Sheffield, a move that would considerably tighten up the defense and theoretically improve a suspect pitching staff... The Rangers asked for starting pitcher Chien-Ming Wang and Cano for Alfonso Soriano and were politely told 'No.'"

Smart move for Yanks but it would be interesting thinking of the Yanks lineup with Soriano, A-Rod, Jeter & Sheffield

I guess that was the right move by Yanks.... I do like Soriano but he just reminds me of Sammy Sosa right now swinging at anything. I guess Wang will learn to not give up the long ball because he doesn't give up many hits and usually a low pitch count. Cano is going to be a great hitter in years to come
