What Aren't the Yankees Shopping For?

In taking a last look for the day on any evening news I might have missed, I couldn't help noticing the number of reports detailing players the Yankees have interest in.

For starters, they have talked to the Mariners about LH pitcher Jarrod Washburn. Also, being reported by the New York Post, is their ongoing interest in Pirates reliever Damasco Marte and Rockies Brian Fuentes. In addition, they are considering going after Mark Teixeira to play first base and possibly, the Orioles catcher Ramon Hernandez.

The New York Daily News reported that during interviews at last week's All-Star game, Hal Steinbrenner told GM Brian Cashman to make whatever deals he deemed necessary, including trading prized prospects. I guess if you cast a wide enough net, you have a better chance of landing something.

    I try not to pay too much attention to all the trade rumors that spring up around this time every year. Nearly every team in contention has about a dozen "looming trades" that never pan out. That's why I like to wait until they actually happen before I comment on them.
