Interesting, that surprises me that Cashman would try somewhat aggressively for Bruce like that. Glad it didn't work out, I am still hoping for a Bird/Andujar 1B/3B combo in September and that would be another guy in the way of that.

Yeah, and isn't Hicks coming off of the DL soon as well? Looks like they have 13 pitchers, so they'll have to send one down or DL Sabathia. If they had added Bruce, I guess that would have meant the end of Ellsbury.

Hicks was just activated, Clint Frazier on the DL with an oblique strain.

They were evidently going to make Bruce the DH if they got him, Garrett Cooper is expendable also although he had a good night last night.
