The NY Yankees #upgraded their outfield by trading catcher John Ryan Murphy to the Minnesota Twins for center fielder Aaron Hicks earlier today. Hicks is a switch-hitter with a rifle of an arm in the outfield, even clocking 100mph catching players sneaking to home plate, and has some speed on the base path…Yankees’ trusty left fielder Brett Gardner may be the next to go; after a solid start and All-Star appearance, he went through a serious slump down the stretch last season.

The boy switching from Flushing Queens (with the NY Mets) to the NY Yankees (just recently) dialed up a bang three run-shot in the Bronx tonight! Right as the Yankees were in peril, down 4-2 in the bottom of the ninth inning, Chris Young came to the plate and got on a perfect pitch! Out of the park!
