Yankees agree to trade Tyler Clippard to Colorado
Colorado agrees to trade Jordan Walden to the Yankees.
Colorado agrees to retain 50% of Walden's salary.
Colorado also agrees in principal to add cash to the deal if the basic outline does not take the Yankees below $5 million overbudget.
I get a better profiled pitcher who costs a bit more than Walden at a price of taking on an extra year of salary.
Yankees save some money, get some flexibility for next year, and still get a useful pitcher for their bullpen.
