Brian Cashman has been on fire since he resigned with the Yankees. His most recent statements indicate that the Yankees will be major players in the free agent market this winter, with their main goal to set their sights on upgrading the rotation.

For those interested in the list of potential free agent pitchers, here's the group Cashman will be picking from: (Red Players are viable upgrades, Yellow Players are gambles, and Green Players, well...make sure you have a upchuck bucket handy if Cashman signs them).
