Yankees GM Brian Cashman has reached out to about 20 teams since the end of last week's Major League Baseball draft to see just what it will take for his club to land a new starting pitcher ahead of next month's trade deadline.

"This team has really earned the right to get reinforced if we can possibly find a way," Cashman told reporters before Friday night's game against the Rays. "We really like the team we've got, and we'd certainly love to make it better if it's possible."

But if the Yankees are able to complete a trade for a dominant starting pitcher in the coming weeks, don't expect rising star Gleyber Torres to be part of it. Cashman has ruled the Yankees' potential Rookie of the Year candidate as untouchable in any trade scenarios.
