If Newsday can be believed...

Rotoworld:
According to Newsday, the Yankees have acquired Shawn Chacon from the Rockies for pitching prospects Eduardo Sierra and Ramon Ramirez.
A good trade for the Yankees. Chacon is hardly certain to help out, but he's a better bet than Al Leiter or Hideo Nomo. AL-only leaguers may want to stay away initially. Jul. 28 - 9:27 pm et

Chacon's pure stuff is pretty good, so he's worth a test run in the Yankees' rotation experiment.

pitching prospects Eduardo Sierra and Ramon Ramirez.

I never heard of either myself...I will see what I can dig up.

I read in the paper the other day that they had given up on Chacon because they didn't think he could handle NY :-?

Sierra is a 23 year old reliever that has been around since 1999...was only in A ball last season. Does not look like anything special.
