Seems like your local rag thinks this is a fair all around trade? The more I read on Rutherford, the more I like it, especially after hearing Hahn talk about him. Hahn is also high on Clarkin. Said now that he is healthy, he is starting to show his potential. It will take a couple of years to get him where he is supposed to be, but once they get there, he could be a top arm. That being said, Hahn is supposed to talk this stuff up. Heck, he even talked up Polo a bit as a very good contact hitter and on base threat with SB potential that can field all three OF positions. In the end, I still believe he is what I thought he was, a speedy 4th OF.

BTW, no question that Frazier plays 1B against lefties righties at least. Sounds like Cooper only really hits lefties. Frazier plays a well above average 1B. Not sure how well Headley plays there.

It wasn't too long ago that the Yankees farm system didn't have quality prospects to trade.
