This MLB insider makes the case for the Cubs sending out top prospects for a specific Pirates pitcher at the trade deadline.

The New York Yankees have reportedly held talks with the Pittsburgh Pirates regarding outfielder Oneil Cruz "and some others," according to Jon Heyman of the New York Post and Noah Hiles of the Pittsburgh Post-Gazette,

“The Yankees have had a known interest in Kiner-Falefa,” Hiles wrote. “The Post-Gazette recently learned that the Giants have also inquired about the Pirates’ shortstop, although the extent of their interest is unknown. Kiner-Falefa has arguably been the Pirates most consistent hitter this year, batting .274 with a .658 OPS over 87 games.”
