I'd say that's the best trade. What about the trade Cashman did make for Swisher? I’d say that’s the best trade.

Austin Kearns anyone? He is a very good defensive RF with power against left handed pitchers. How about the WillingHammer Willingham. He has hit 30 homers recently and on bases over .360? Got to be as good as Nady. Millage? He is as toolsy as they get? He is just down in AAA for a second. anyone? anyone? Nats may have an extra OF or three around. Austin Kearns anyone?

Swisher's not gonna be lacking for PT. What happens when Matsui/Damon are injured? Who will they trade for then?

I was pro-Swisher from the start, but it doesn't hurt to see him tearing it up. That said, the injury to Nady hurts. Nady < Swisher, but he's still useful. This likely means more of Melky Cabrera or the rushing of Austin Jackson. Neither of which is good. I’ve been really happy with Swisher’s performance so far.

Luckily, A-Rod should be ready come early May, and if A-Jax keeps tearing up AAA, the Yanks might get a twofer boost. Gardner and Ransom don’t deserve starting jobs.
