I'm pretty sure, now that Cashman is actually in charge and not the Tampa Cabal, the Hughes/Sanders rumors are just that - he turned down that trade right after Matsui got hurt, and I'd guess the new guy in KC is much better than Baird so he might have reasonable demands . . . that would still be a shitty trade, since Sanders is signed for next season too . . .
I'd bet it's something more along the lines of Hughes and a package of last year's high draft picks (excepting, of course, the point guard . . . er shortstop . . . er whatever) for Soriano, though. Hughes's numbers have bottomed out since he moved up, but God his projections were amazing coming into this season.

True - it seemed that Cashman demanded close to total control over these matters to stay in NY. Hughes could end up not being all that great, but it would be more important, in a symbolic way, that they weren't going to start auctioning off prospects for half-baked solutions.
I don't think anyone is knocking down the Yankees door for C.J. Henry, but hey, if they get an intramural basketball league going for minor leaguers, watch out.
