Yankees land A's ace Frankie Montas in blockbuster deal
After the New York Yankees weren't able to land Luis Castillo in a trade - as the Mariners got him - the Yankees went elsewhere to land some pitching help. And they've pulled off a blockbuster move in the process.
Per multiple reports, the Yanks and A's have agreed to a huge deal, which sends ace hurler Frankie Montas to the Bronx. Whoa.
The full package for the Oakland #Athletics from the #Yankees for ace Frankie Montas and closer Lou Trivino

LHP Ken Waldischuk (5th-best prospect)
RHP Louis Medina (10th-best)
LHP J.P. Sears (17th)
2B Cooper Bowman (21st)
Not only that, but NY has also received star closer Lou Trivino. The Yankees are all in on trying to win the World Series this season and these two additions will surely help them potentially reach that goal.
