Yankees get:
1B Ike Davis, NYM - 13:$3.1M (Service: 2.168) 1B Darin Ruf, PHI - 13:$0.5M (Service: 0.024) P Anthony Meo, ARZ - 13:$0.1M (PROSPECT)
Phillies get:
RP David Robertson, NYY - 13:$3.1M (Service: 4.070)
Yankees Net Cap: +$0.6M Phillies Net Cap: -$0.6M
Place Ike Davis on 25 man roster. Place Darin Ruf on 25 man roster. Place Anthony Meo in minors.
Yankees confirm.
I was skeptical about Phillies being able to meet the price on Robertson at first, but with Davis and Ruf's power potential I like my future at 1B. Meo has been having a very nice season, but I expect him to eventually become an electric reliever who can nab some holds.

Accept.
Robertson is a premier set-up man and future closer assuming Mo retires eventually. Paid a price but im working on my rotation and bullpen right now and this is worth it in my eyes.
