Latest reports out of Las Vegas as of 6:15 pm are the Red Sox are the favorite for Mark Teixiera. If the Sox sign Tex then they will trade Lowell and move Youkilis to 3B. Get ready for your mind to be blown. The Sox with the addition of Tex could possibly trade David Ortiz to free up cap room and make more space for the big switch hitting gold glove first baseman.
The Atlanta Braves are making a full court press on A.J Burnett and expect them to sign him. So the Yankees can cross him of their list. Now the big question is where will C.C sign. Sources now say although the meeting with the Yankees and Sabathia went "great" he still prefers the west coast. Angels are the favorite but they also want Tex back. Should the Angels give C.C 120-130 million you can expect C.C to play for the Halo's. For the sake of the New York Yankees...and especially if the Red Sox get Tex...SIGN HIM IMMEDIATELY...WOW HIM TO DEATH.
Now that Burnett could possibly be out of the picture for the Bronx Bombers, look for them to set their sights permanently on Derek Lowe and Andy Pettite.
According to Michael Kay of 1050 ESPN Radio when speaking with Yankees manager Joe Girardi, Ben Sheets is one of Giardi's favorite players. Girardi told Kay that he would love to have Sheets and that he would take the 20 starts Sheets would give him in exchange for the 15 he would miss because he knows how well those 20 starts would be.
