Yankees One-Up the Braves

SI.com's Jon Heyman says the Yankees have topped the Braves' four-year, $60 million proposal to A.J. Burnett.

The assumption is that the Yankees went to $64 million for four years. All along it's appeared that the first team to go to five years would land Burnett, and that still may be the case. Heyman thinks the Yankees could go there. The Blue Jays have made it clear that they won't.
