Re: New York Yankees
The Yankees have agreed to a minor-league deal with RHP Andrew Bailey.
The incentive-based pact is for a base salary of $2.5 million, if Bailey makes the Major League roster, which also would trigger a 2015 option or buyout.
Bailey is out until midseason after undergoing shoulder surgery in 2013.

Re: New York Yankees
The Yankees have agreed to a four-year, $52 million extension with OF Brett Gardner.
The deal includes a $12.5 million fifth-year option (or $2 million buyout) that would bring the deal to $62.5 million.
There is no no-trade clause included in the deal that begins in 2015.

Re: New York Yankees
Chad Jennings: I was told today that a few teams have been specifically scouting Francisco Cervelli as a potential trade target. That said, Cervelli's trade value is seen as fairly limited. A non-Yankees source suggested a team might be willing to trade one of its own out-of-options player for him; basically an excess-for-excess swap. It seems that teams realize Cervelli could be expendable, so they're checking on him. (LINK)
Wouldn't be surprised at all to see one of Cervelli, Austin Romine or John Ryan Murphy traded before the season starts.

Peter Gammons: Several teams looking for a third baseman are watching Houston's Matt Dominguez. "The Yankees could be a player here," says one scout.
The 25-year-old hit .241/.286/.403 (89 wRC+) with 21 homers and 77 RBI in 589 plate appearances in 2013.

Re: New York Yankees
There's been some talk today that a Francisco Cervelli trade could be coming.
Cervelli has been catching a lot of Masahiro Tanaka, but Brian McCann was scratched from the Panama trip to catch Tanaka and Hiroki Kuroda on Sunday-Monday.
Could be nothing but might be something. Stay tuned.

Re: New York Yankees
The Yankees are not desperate. Derek Jeter is the current shortstop, defensive whiz Brendan Ryan is available and so is Eduardo Nunez. Yet rival executives say the Yankees are willing to be proactive and have their eyes on both Arizona's Didi Gregorius and Seattle's Nick Franklin – who would be more to step in at second base in the near future.

Re: New York Yankees
Is it time to designate Preston Claiborne for assignment?
http://www.pinstripealley.com/yanke...276/yankees-bullpen-claiborne-spring-training
I would be fine with this. He started out hot last season but has been poor since then, to end the season and in spring training.
Guys like Daley, Leroux and Lewis have clearly out-pitched him this spring, plus there's always the chance Claiborne gets through waivers and you have even more pitching depth.
