Brian Cashman, perhaps still recovering from his night of sleeping in the street, was short and cryptic in an exchange of text messages this morning.

Here is a transcript of my "conversation'' with the Yankees GM:

Me: What r u working on?

Cashman: 2012

Me: Thanks

Cashman: Do something on winter ball

Me: Hector Noesi is 3-1, 2.31 ERA in Dominican League.

Cashman: Blog it

Me: Any chance of making Jurrjens deal? For Nunez and who else?

Cashman: Stop wasting your breath

Me (changing course): How about Reyes to the Yankees, Jeter to the OF?

Cashman: U should work for the Enquirer

Me: Good idea. Would Buerhle be a good fit for 4 u guys?

Cashman: Winterball

Me: Brrrrrrr
