Yankees trade with Phillies for Abreu, Lidle
Yankees land Abreu in trade
Bombers also acquire Lidle from Phillies for four prospects
NEW YORK -- The Yankees solved two of their problems with one trade
on Sunday, acquiring Bobby Abreu and Cory Lidle from the Phillies
for four Minor League prospects.
New York sent shortstop C.J. Henry, left-hander Matt Smith, catcher
Jesus Sanchez and right-hander Carlos Monasterios to Philadelphia
for Abreu, a two-time National League All-Star and 2005 Gold Glove winner.
Abreu is hitting .277 this season, but his on-base percentage is a
robust .427, third in the NL. After averaging 25 homers per season
from 2000-05, Abreu has just eight home runs this season, though he
does have 65 RBIs.
Abreu will become the Yankees' everyday right fielder, moving Bernie
Williams and Aaron Guiel to the bench. Melky Cabrera will likely remain
the regular left fielder until Hideki Matsui returns from the disabled
list next month, at which time the youngster should become a bench player.
Lidle went 8-7 with a 4.74 ERA in 21 starts for Philadelphia, posting
13 quality starts. In parts of nine seasons with six different teams,
he has a career record of 78-69 with a 4.55 ERA.
Lidle will likely join the back end of the rotation in place of Sidney
Ponson, who has started twice for New York since being signed on July 14.
Lidle last pitched on Thursday for the Phillies, so he could start on
Thursday in Ponson's place against Toronto.
Henry, the Yankees' first-round draft pick in 2005, was hitting .237 with
two home runs, 33 RBIs and 14 stolen bases in 76 games this season with
Class A Charleston.
Smith has spent the 2006 season shuttling back and forth between New York
and Triple-A Columbus, posting impressive numbers in both places. The
left-hander, who did not allow a run in 12 appearances with the Yankees
this season, is 0-1 with a 2.08 ERA in 24 relief outings for the Clippers.
Sanchez hit .264 with no homers and 10 RBIs in 23 games for the Gulf Coast
League Yankees, while Monasterios went 1-2 with a 2.97 ERA in seven games
(three starts) for the GCL Yankees.
