I feel like we could do with a true ace somehow, a 2B, need some middle of the order presence that can hit like .300 30HR. I don't see the Yankees getting any of that. Players that need to bounce back are Pineda and Ellsbury specifically.

Heh, you ask the question "How to improve?" as if you did not know the answer, then you provide it! If I may add to it, and with a nod to VGIJane about McCann, I humbly repeat this decree:

But I will list these well-known Yankees for whom I would be lowering the boom soon if I were Cashman:- McCann *
- Teixeira **
- Drew **
- Young *
- Ryan **
- Sabathia **
- Nova *
* Cashman to player: "Shape up and produce next year or be gone."
** Cashman to player: "Thanks. Pack up your stuff. You're done."

Dustin Ackley may be your answer for 2B. Realistically, you should not be expecting another Robinson Cano (his bat, not his attitude).
