## Resource

The Yankees appear ready to make catcher their top priority at the trade deadline, but the available options could force Brian Cashman to get creative. Evan Roberts and Tiki Barber discuss possible targets, the need for bullpen help and whether a risky move for Corey Seager could transform the lineup. They also assess what the Yankees accomplished by splitting with the Rays and whether one offensive outburst is enough to inspire confidence. As criticism of Cashman intensifies, the conversation turns to his deadline record and the difficult question of when consistent regular season success is no longer enough.
