If they did, the probably never trade him, or at least, for a much better deal then they just got. There is a big, BIG difference in the value bewteen a .900 OPS DH and a .900 OPS Catcher. While he is still very young, he is about the same age that Montero was when we started following Montero. From what I've read, most Scouts think Sanchez might be even better then Montero, as they believe he can actually Catch. I agree that the Yanks didn’t have faith that Montero could Catch.
