Yankees should pay the Pirates' rising price with this David Bednar trade package

We're coming down to the trade deadline wire, and the New York Yankees still have some big priorities to cross off their list. After an early strike to scratch their third base itch by acquiring Ryan McMahon from the Colorado Rockies, the team has been more measured, making minor moves for utility man Amed Rosario and surprising everyone by adding reserve outfielder Austin Slater to their already crowded outfield mix.

While each of those moves makes the team better, none of them looks to cause a seismic shift in the team's fortunes, while fans anxiously await the moment that Brian Cashman actually "goes to town" and takes a big swing before it's too late.
