The Yankees have an abundance of catching prospects on top of Montero, so I have no doubt in my mind they'll make a deal at the deadline. I just hope they move someone like Romine and not Jesus...he's supposed to be a young Manny Ramirez, and I don't think the Yanks, even with an extra arm, are WS contenders when stacked against the Sox and Phillies.

I never said they were. But getting to the playoffs is not the same as being "World Series competitors" . Yankees will make it there by some way or another. I would prefer anyone more then Montero to be traded. By the deadline Montero could be up and that could be the piece that makes the Yankees say no. I love Carpenter but there are only a select few I would trade Montero for.
If the Yankees got King Felix for example there's a possibility that I will give Seattle a Montero package. But, yeah we need Carpenter if it means we will have to give up Sanchez and a few more of our pitchers to hold on to Montero I'd do it.
