How many trades does one General Manger have to make during his career before teams start to get wise to his tricks? Does such a number exist for Brian Cashman? At this point, I don’t think it does. He does it with trades whether it be Nick Swisher or Luke Voit. He does it with under the radar free agency deals like DJ LeMahieu or Russell Martin. He even does it with minor league signings like Gio Urshela, Freddy Garcia, and the immortal Bartolo Colon. What can’t he do? If you are a GM in Major League Baseball and you look at your cell phone and see Ninja Cashman is on the line, you can count on not winning whatever deal you are about to make.
