Yanks accept... Cabrera can take Fukudome's spot on the bench.  Meanwhile, I pick up two top prospects to add to my budding farm.

 :iatp: makes since, it does the Evil Empire no good to have 1000 pts on the bench, however I hope to see what that feels like some day  :thumbsup:

It will be interesting to see what happens in real life with Fukudome.  I like this deal for the Yanks.

Approved.
