Manny Banuelos for Carpenter and Shreve?

Celebrating the Official Mayonnaise, Salad Dressing and Vegetable Oil of the New York Yankees.

First, I can understand why Cashman made that trade: The Yankees had better pitching prospects to protect than Banuelos. And, of course, River Ave quickly embraced the deal - almost too much, if I remember correctly.

But it's looking like a bummer.

Manny Banuelos is throwing a 2.65 ERA at Triple A for the Braves, and he's picking up steam. (He started the season terribly.) Carpenter has been awful, and we can't even drop him to Scranton. Shreve is - well - meh.
