re: MLB Trade Discussion Thread - Greinke to the Astros

Heyman considers it unlikely that the Indians’ will trade Trevor Bauer (controllable through 2020) or the Rangers with deal Mike Minor (controllable through 2020) while they are in the thick of the postseason race. And although the Yanks like impending free agent Zack Wheeler, Heyman gets the sense that the organization doesn’t think it can pry him from the crosstown Mets without a major overpay.

That leaves Bumgarner (a free agent after this season) and Stroman (controllable through 2020), though the Yankees are "not that enamored" with either pitcher, according to Heyman. It's unclear which of the two New York prefers, but Heyman thinks the club should go after Bumgarner because of his postseason resume.
