Xavier Nady came out of the Pirates/Padres game in the first inning tonight but he wasn't hurt, he was now a NY YANKEE! Damaso Marte appeared in the Pirates dugout shortly afterwards, hugging players with a smile on his face. Then word leaked out that a deal was in place, pending physicals. Less than an hour later, most of the details have found their way to the internet and as per Will Carroll it looks like Nady and Marte are going to be Yankees for a quartet of prospects; Jose Tabata, Phil Coke, George Kontos and Ross Ohlendorf.
I loved Nady when he was a MET and the yankees knew how great and consistent a hitter he was - nice pickup for the yanks! The Pirates appear doomed...forever...poor, poor team!!
