The Yankees are heading into the All Star break atop the American League East, looking like strong contenders for a postseason spot. As such, they make sense as a candidate to be a 'buyer' at the deadline, looking for an extra piece or two that could help put the the team over the top.
Certainly, there are several players on the market who, if acquired, would significantly improve the team's outlook in the second half - hey Johnny Cueto - but in some cases the Yankees might be able to generate improved production internally.
