The New York Yankees have come up short in each of the last few years, and it seems like the fans are getting restless. Whether it’s calling for Aaron Boone or Brian Cashman to be fired, the fanbase clearly seems to want some kind of change.<\/p>\n

But the Bronx Bombers might be able to make this change without firing anybody. In fact, they could save everybody’s job with one franchise-altering trade.<\/p>\n

Adam Weirib of Yanks Go Yard recently suggested the Yankees could look to swing a trade for Detroit Tigers ace Tarik Skubal. Skubal is entering the final year of his contract, and it seems like he’s unlikely to sign an extension with the Tigers before he hits free agency.<\/p>\n

\"Franchise-altering<\/p>\n

“Now, just because Detroit is stacked with offensive firepower doesn’t mean they won’t ask for George Lombard Jr. It\u00a0does<\/em>\u00a0mean that the Yankees might be able to get away with negotiating around him,” Weinrib wrote. “By the time these theoretical talks settle, Spencer Jones, along with top-tier pitching prospects Elmer Rodriguez-Cruz and Carlos Lagrange, will be\u00a0required<\/em>\u00a0to be a part of the package. The only real question is whether the Yankees can escape without including Cam Schlittler in exchange for only one guaranteed year of Skubal.<\/p>\n

“We’ll be optimistic and say they’ll be able to add Vanderbilt’s Bryce Cunningham in a four-for-one and get it done. The pessimistic version, though? Add Schlittler, make it even more top heavy, hold your nose and … fine. Do it. It’s literally Tarik Skubal, and Boston is lurking.”<\/p>\n

It’s important to note that Skubal trade rumors hold no weight right now. He’s very unlikely to be moved unless something goes drastically wrong for the Tigers.<\/p>\n

But if the Yankees are to package a huge haul of their top prospects together, they could be a realistic suitor if the Tigers end up moving him.<\/p>\n

The Yankees also have the money to re-sign him on a massive deal. This is the kind of trade that would help save Aaron Judge’s career with some postseason success.<\/p>\n
