Seems like the names of Brewers' Carlos Lee and Nationals' Alfonso Soriano have come up as both teams sent special assistants to scout out Yankee pitching prospect Phil Hughes. The dearth of big ticker minor leaguer prospects means we might have to deal Hughes if there was any chance of a trade.
The last memory of Soriano I had in Pinstripes was during his miserable 2003 post-season. He's a hell of a talent, and if he committed to playing the outfield, I would LOVE to have him back.
