Yankees: Don’t ever do what Knicks did

Let me start off by saying a trade like the Knicks pulled off last night would never happen in baseball because basketball is a completely different game.

A star like Carmelo Anthony makes much more of a difference in a basketball game than Alex Rodriguez can make in a baseball game. If Melo goes off for 50, the Knicks are winning — plain and simple. If A-Rod hits three homers, there’s no guarantee the Yankees’ pitching is going to hold that lead.
