There is a huge possibility that David Price might be traded to the New York Yankees.

In a report by NJ.com, Jim Bowden, former general manager of the Nationals and Reds, shared his insights on the best deals that may be done involving the left-handed ace. According to Bowden, the Yankees are in fourth place to possibly acquire Price, following the Angels, Blue Jays and White Sox. The Braves complete the top 5.

Bowden said, "Yankees owner Hal Steinbrenner has made it clear that he will provide GM Brian Cashman the resources he needs to make a blockbuster deal at the trade deadline, and the Yankees won't be seeing the postseason if they don't deal for another legitimate starter who doesn't have health or decline questions. The Yankees' system is loaded, and though they would decline the inclusion of Dellin Betances, the Rays' first choice, they would give up what they have to in the minor leagues to acquire Price."

He added, "The Rays have a long-term need at catcher, and Gary Sanchez would be the perfect acquisition in a Price deal. Sanchez would benefit from being developed behind the Rays' Ryan Hanigan, who did a great job influencing Devin Mesoraco in Cincinnati before his trade to Tampa Bay. The Rays would also need a pitcher back in the deal, with Luis Severino being a top target. The 20-year-old is dominating the South Atlantic League, with a strikeout per inning and an ERA under 3.00. And because the Yankees would have to overpay -- they're in the Rays' division and don't have an Aaron Sanchez to deal -- they also might have to toss in power-hitting prospect Peter O'Brien, who continues to hit towering home runs at an alarming rate (23 already between High A and Double-A)."

In a Fox Sports article, David Price, who is currently with the Tampa Bay Rays, may be traded twice. The Stingrays are not performing very well and have a 1.7% chance of going to the postseason. Price is too valuable not to be traded before the deadline. One of the bigger advantages that come with the starting pitcher is that the next team he will be playing in will keep him until 2015, when he enters free agency.

The Rays are expecting a hefty exchange for their star pitcher. Many MLB teams will also find it difficult to afford Price in the following year. When Price entered the major league in 2009, he had a "Super Two" status, which provides him with four trips through salary arbitration, instead of the usual three. Because he qualified for the arbitration, he can increase his salary faster than most pitchers. In 2013, he had a record $10 million salary. He upped it to $14 million in 2014.

The New York Yankees will most likely trade Sanchez, Severino and O'Brien among other things.
