I think the Yankees need to keep using the minor league system like they've been doing recently. They're still gonna be big in the FA market when they need to but they need to complement those guys with young guys that aren't gonna cost 20M a year. I know we're talking about Halladay here though. I just don't see why the Yankees would or should give up some of their big young guys for him. They didn't for Santana and he was 3 or 4 years younger than Halladay currently is. I mean we really aren't getting the prime years of Roy Halladay if we trade for and extend him. We are gonna be getting him when he is 35,36,37. And while he could possibly still be as great as he is now in his mid to late 30s, chances are he won't be.

Quite frankly I wouldn't really dream of trading Montero unless it was for someone like king Felix. For him I'd go above and beyond to get him.
