Yankees Trade Rumors and Gossip 8/19/15: Sabathia's shoes, the Macarena, and a rat

Submerge your person in what constitutes the most eclectic edition of our rumor roundup yet: within, CC Sabathia yells, Derek Jeter gets fleeced by Avon, and Brian McCann shares his thoughts on Brendan Ryan.

  • Following up on one of the waiver wire trade rumors we investigated on Monday – it now seems more or less certain Chase Utley won’t be coming to New York. We previously noted that either the Giants, the Angels, or the Cubs were favorites to land him, and now the word from Ken Rosenthal is that Utley, who has a full no trade clause, might not fancy coming to New York anyway – he being a West Coast native who wants to move closer to home.
