River Ave. Blues ยป Olney: Yankees have “no intention” in joining bidding for Hamels

Olney: Yankees have “no intention” in joining bidding for Hamels

July 4, 2012 by Mike 45 Comments

Injury Updates: CC, Feliciano, Nunez, Aardsma
Update: Yankees claim Darnell McDonald off waivers from Red Sox

Via Buster Olney, the Yankees have “no intention” of getting involved in the bidding for Cole Hamels unless the Phillies’ asking price dropped dramatically. The other day we heard that Philadelphia had begun to gauge trade interest in their homegrown ace left-hander.

We’re going to hear an awful lot of stuff like this in the coming weeks and almost all of it posturing. The Yankees have no reason not to say they won’t get involved unless the price drops and about a million reasons not to say they will get involved. At the end of the day, it’s all about putting yourself in the best possible position to negotiate. Saying you aren’t interested is the best way to do that.
