The Oakland Athletics are coming to town this week, and playing three games with the New York Yankees. The Yankees will be buyers for this trade deadline, and a team that could be selling are the Oakland A’s. The Oakland A’s are in last place in the AL West, and have a few very valuable trade chips. The two players the Yankees would have the most interest in are Scott Kazmir and Ben Zobrist.
The Yankee rotation has been inconsistent at best this year, and Scott Kazmir would be a huge boost to the rotation.
