Yankees get Jerry Hairston from Reds. It was rumored that they gave up Austin Jackson which would have been a steep price but now MLBTV saying thats not true

Hagadone and Price are 22 year old 3 star prospects. Nick Hagadone, LHP DOB: 1/1/86 Height/Weight: 6-5/230 Bats/Throws: L/L Drafted/Signed: 1st round, 2007, University of Washington 2008 Stats: 0.00 ERA at Low-A (10-5-6-12), 4.50 DERA Last Year's Ranking: 8 Year in Review: The power left-hander made just three appearances in the Sally League in 2008 before seeing his season swept away by Tommy John surgery. The Good: Hagadone is a rare talent; a big power lefty with extreme velocity whose fastball sits at 94-96 mph and can touch 98, and a slider that gives him a second true out pitch. He also made some progress with his changeup, and as a former college reliever, he brings a fearless approach to the game. The Bad: Hagadone's stuff is top-notch, but his command and control are both below average. His somewhat violent delivery needed to be tempered even before the surgery, so he'll now need to learn how to smooth out his mechanics while maintaining his power. The missed year leaves him at 23 years old with only 34 1/3 innings of pro experience. Fun Fact: Scouts love athletic bloodlines, and Hagadone's father played football at the University of Idaho, while his mother played volleyball at Montana State. Perfect World Projection: He'll be a dominating power pitcher. Glass Half Empty: He may end up as a late-inning reliever. Bryan Price, RHP DOB: 11/13/86 Height/Weight: 6-4/210 Bats/Throws: R/R Drafted/Signed: 1st round, 2008, Rice University 2008 Stats: 3.83 ERA at Short-season (40-47-10-43) Last Year's Ranking: N/A Year in Review: He's an outstanding raw talent who finally put it all together during his junior year at Rice, going from being a rarely used extra bullpen arm to a supplemental first-round pick. The Good: Primarily a reliever in college, Price's power frame and three-pitch arsenal have the Red Sox hoping that he'll continue to shine as a starter. He pitches primarily off of his heavy 92-95 fastball in order to set up a power slider that is a true swing-and-miss pitch. His changeup is solid, and he stays within the strike zone. The Bad: While Price has control, he lacks command. He's had trouble in the past throwing strikes, and can become overly concerned with it, grooving fastballs down the middle in order to get ahead in the count, which can make him quite hittable. His changeup shows promise, but lacks consistency, and he doesn't have the confidence to use it in pressure situations. Fun Fact: Price spent his youth in Marble Falls, Texas, located between Austin and San Antonio. Named after the local rock formations when it was founded in the 1880s, there is actually no marble in Marble Falls—just limestone and granite. Perfect World Projection: He should be a mid-rotation starting pitcher. Glass Half Empty: He'll be a power relief pitcher, but there is always the fear that he could stop throwing strikes any minute now.
