**kidcudi92** · 07-22-14, 12:32 PM

and just when you thought the Padres offense couldn't get any worse, meh solarte isn't the WORST i guess

**daneblazer** · 07-22-14, 12:32 PM

They got twice as much for Street than they did for Headley

**actiondan** · 07-22-14, 12:36 PM

On the Cubs tonight this helps

**crustyme** · 07-22-14, 12:57 PM

pads traded their entire offense.

good riddance...Headley is a turd

**easyliving** · 07-22-14, 01:27 PM

Headley is a solid player will definitely help the Yankees, I like the move. Yanks obviously trying to get Jeter one final postseason game. The way that division is playing out they still might win it.

Yankees acquire 3B Chase Headley

The New York Yankees have acquired third baseman Chase Headley in a trade Tuesday with theSan Diego Padres.

The Yankees dealt infielder Yangervis Solarte and minor league pitcher Rafael De Paula to San Diego in exchange for Headley, who could boost New York's struggling lineup.
The Padres also will send $1 million to the Yankees in the deal, a source told ESPNNewYork.com's Andrew Marchand. Headley is scheduled to become a free agent after this season.
The 30-year-old Headley is batting just .229 with seven home runs and 32 RBIs this season but could help a Yankees offense that entered Tuesday with a team average of .252.
Headley hit 31 home runs and led the National League with 115 RBIs in 2012. His numbers dipped to .250 with 13 homers and 50 RBIs a year ago after he rebuffed the Padres' willingness to negotiate a deal during the season.
Headley settled on a one-year, $10.5 million contract in January to avoid arbitration.

Just what they needed

I know, like the deal a ton, however, was he juicing in 2012?

**jt315** · 07-22-14, 01:50 PM

Maybe a pennant race and a hitters park will be just what he needs. Good pickup. Didn't cost much.

**will2survive** · 07-22-14, 01:53 PM

cost nothing for Headley;worth a try if he gets hot.

He had one hot 3 or 4 month stretch in his career, other than that he has been mediocre at best.

CBS Sports' Jon Heyman reports that the Yankees have acquired third baseman Chase Headley from the Padres.

Neither team has confirmed the deal, but the Yankees will send infielder Yangervis Solarte and prospect right-hander right-hander Rafael De Paula to the Padres. New York will also receive $1 million from San Diego to help cover part of the nearly $4 million remaining on Headley's contract for this season.

SO ????

You don't think Headley can lead them to the promise land?

**Dirty Sanchez** · 07-22-14, 04:21 PM

Chase Headley = Championship

He hated SD big time, said so, also I think he wouldn't sign a deal with them, or so the story goes

**MoneyLineDawg** · 07-22-14, 05:29 PM

Hopefully he gets back on the juice.....Yanks need big time help

Good point. Any hitter getting out of that stadium has to increase his stats.

**krk1030** · 07-22-14, 05:58 PM

Solarte started so hot and now cant even get on the field.

**stevenash** · 07-22-14, 06:21 PM

He was another Yank flash in the pan.
Like Chad Curtis was

**Dirty Sanchez** · 07-22-14, 06:38 PM

Can't do anything but help the Yankees....3B was a Black Hole for them...and if he starts to hit it's a bonus. ARoid surely isn't going to be wearing pinstripes next year...hopefully

**Killer_Demo** · 07-22-14, 07:16 PM

Good move by Yankees.

**Cappinpicks** · 07-22-14, 11:01 PM

great move, walk off hero on debut.. stud

**yanksallday7** · 07-22-14, 11:03 PM

How great is that, my boys never gave up and look who got the W for them also.

**MoneyLineDawg** · 07-22-14, 11:04 PM

Walk off hit....awesome

Seems like a good dude in the postgame interview as well, rooting for him to have a bounce back

**remeedella** · 07-22-14, 11:07 PM
