NEW YORK (CBSNewYork) — Imagine what the Yankees’ lineup would have looked like if they had done this deal. Then imagine how few coveted prospects they would have had.
According to WFAN baseball insider John Heyman, the Atlanta Braves approached the Yankees about a mega-deal a while back that would have sent outfielders Jason Heyward and B.J. Upton, shortstop Andrelton Simmons, and others to the Bronx for a massive package of prospects, including right-hander Luis Severino, outfielder Aaron Judge and catcher Gary Sanchez.
