That Cole trade is a real head scratcher. You trade a young pitcher under control for 2 seasons for......what exactly? A midling old prospect, a bad relief pitcher, and Joe Musgrove, one of the most hittable pitchers in the league with a pathetic 83 ERA+ (17 percent below average).
If the Yankees were serious about trading for Cole its hard to imagine they put together a package of less talent than that.
