Carlos Beltran

It has been a tremendous season thus far for the 39-year-old. He's hitting .305 with a team leading 21 homers and 62 RBI's and proving he still has one of best bats in the majors. With that being said, many would think the Yankees will choose to keep him around for the duration of the season, but that all could change with a phone call and the right offer. Beltran could instantly help a contender in need of an extra hitter while bringing a decent haul of prospects to the farm system. It's safe to say that if the trigger is pulled on a potential trade, the Yankees may stand to gain the most from it, even if it's not seen immediately.

Andrew Miller

Now that Aroldis Chapman has been traded to the Chicago Cubs Miller has resumed his role as the team's closer. Without a suitable replacement waiting in the wings, it may be safe to say that the big lefty is off the market, but things could change even when it's least expected. Should a team come with an offer the Yankees can't pass up Miller could be on the move, but the likelihood of that happening is pretty slim. "No Runs DMC" may no longer be together, but the back end is still just as strong as it was last season.

Mark Teixeira

There have been some who are calling for the Yankees to deal the trad the underperforming first baseman, but that could prove a difficult task as not many teams are willing to acquire his services. With his contract expiring at the end of the season the team may be better suited to let him play out the season in pinstripes and move on come November. If a club comes forward and offers to take on his contract then the decision would be made easy, but that is the only way he gets moved.

Nathan Eovaldi

Recently, the Pittsburgh Pirates have expressed interest in Eovaldi and there are several scenarios that could be beneficial for all parties. The only issue is what would become of the Yankees sparse rotation without him. Sure you can call up a starter from the minors or even plug Luis Severino back in it but there would need to be something more guaranteed. Perhaps the Yankees could deal him for a young starter at the back end of another team’s rotation, or even a nearly Major League ready pitcher from a minor league system. Whatever the case Eovaldi would need to be traded under the best circumstances for the future.

Brian McCann

The Yankees have touted Gary Sanchez as the future everyday catcher for four years, but have yet to fully commit to hm. Bringing in McCann in 2014 seemed like it was a great move to ensure that the catcher position was stabilized for the time being. Though his hitting has suffered quite a bit in the shift happy American League, there is still enough skill to warrant dealing him to a team that is in need of some pop in their lineup. This would clear the way for Sanchez to finally show what he's got and earn a place in the coming years

 Andrew Miller

It's been a good year thus far for Miller as he has seamlessly slid into the setup role after being the team's closer for all of 2015. Sporting a 1.13 ERA and 15 strikeouts to go with his stellar season numbers, it’s going to be very hard to even consider dealing Miller at the deadline if he continues to perform like this.

Aroldis Chapman

Since returning from an early season suspension Chapman has been as good as advertised when the Yankees acquired him. He's made mincemeat of hitters with his 100+ mph fastball, providing an intimidation factor that is giving the Yankees back end trio marquee billing in any close game.

Brett Gardner

For the first time this season Gardner has hit a sustained hot streak batting .556 over seven games and is stinging the ball with an improved swing to boot. This a more than pleasant sight as he had fallen on troubling times at the dish for the better part of two seasons. Hopefully he can keep this consistency which would give fans and Girardi a reason for optimism that the 32-year-old outfielders prolonged slumps are over for the time being.

Carlos Beltran

It continues to be a Renaissance season for Beltran as he poured in a .345 average with 4 homers this week. Whatever has gotten into the 40-year-old right fielder, the Yankees should hope that it does not leave him anytime soon

Jacoby Ellsbury

Having your leadoff man hitting well is always a plus for any offense so that Yankees are definitely pleased with the results Ellsbury has yielded this week. With a .360 average and .429 on base percentage over seven games, He is giving the offense the spark it needs to get going.

Brian McCann

Despite the success of the Yankees hitting of late, things aren't going quite as well for McCann. Batting just .176 thus week it was difficult for him to capitalize on his teammates good fortunes. To be fair, he did have to deal with a hyperextended elbow for three days, however it would be hard to say if his slump wasn't still concerning to the overall picture.

Dellin Betances

Perhaps the most shocking cold player of the team is the "D" in the newly named "No Runs DMC". He has a 7.36 ERA over seven games, a tremendously disappointing number for a pitcher of his caliber. It will important for the Yankees to get his confidence back up with a few strong outings without wearing him down too much. If the new nickname is to stick, it will be highly important get the first guy back into dominant form

Assessing the Yankees - Week 9

Sunday's victory capped a stellar week for the Bombers as they swept both the Mariners and Angels in three game sets.  The team looks to have rejuvenated itself at the turn of the calendar, giving notice that they are not to be taken lightly in the race for AL East Supremacy.

The Good - The Starting pitching was excellent, turning in quality nearly all week long. As has been said before, the pitching staff will be the deciding factor for the Yankees playoff hopes. With most of the AL East (other than the Rays) struggling to find consistency in their pitching staffs, the Yankees must make this the deciding factor that separates them from the rest of the pack.

- The return on Masahiro Tanaka was more than satisfying as he gave a superior performance in his major league first outing since April 23.  His impressive line (7 innings 3 hits 1 run and 9 strikeouts) and effortless command of the plate was surely a more than welcome sight for the club.  As long as his elbow holds up, the staff could be that much more dangerous.

- Brett Gardner put together a nice week going 8 for 26 (.307) and putting some very good at bats together. With Jacoby Ellsbury still on the shelf and not due back for another month, it will be up to Gardner to provide the spark from the leadoff spot. If he can get on a good streak, it will be all the more beneficial for Yankees.

- It was nice to see both Stephen Drew and Garrett Jones deliver offensively for the team as they have struggled for most of the season. Hopefully this wasn't just a small spurt of good fortune for the two and they can finally start to make some real contributions to the club.

The Bad - Chris Young entered the week marred in a terrible slump. Since May 3 he is 7 for his last 58 (.120) and showing little signs returning to his early season form which saw him hit .313 over the first month. While he has been able to provide some good defense in the outfield, he won't much more playing time if this poor streak begins to directly affect the teams overall performance
