YANKEE RUMORS & BYB: PART 3

CC Sabathia: Joel Sherman believes that the offer to Sabathia would be a 5 year, $120 million dollar deal, and MLB Trade Rumors is reporting that both Cash and Sabathia's Agent are meeting this weekend. Read that HERE. Read Sherman's tweet HERE. Sherman's offer suggestion is a guess, but a good one.Robinson Cano & Nick Swisher: The Yankees announced today that they have picked up options of both Cano and Swish. Read about it HERE. Cano's option was for $14 million and was a formality. Nick Swisher's option was for $10.25 million. Things are starting to get done in Yankeeland.
Hideki Matsui: The Yankees could use a cheap yet still affective DH and Matsui may be that guy. According to MLB Trade Rumors: "The Athletics' interest in re-signing impending free agent DH Hideki Matsui is waning, according to Susan Slusser of the San Francisco Chronicle. Oakland wants to get younger, according to Slusser, and Matsui, now 37, doesn't fit that bill." I'm not saying the Yankees should go old, I'm saying having Matsui in the lineup could prove smart and cheap.Carlos Beltran: Andrew McCarron says the Yankees are staying away from the bidding on Carlos Beltran now that the Yankees are picking up Nick Swisher's option. The Yankees are not interested in offering a multi-year deal to Beltran who is older and more injury prone to Nick Swisher. Read about that HERE.
CJ Wilson: This lefty is still on the Yankees radar and is the best option for the Yankees, but of course it all will fall into place if the Yankees are able too sign CC Sabathia. I don't think there is a question that the Yankees can sign CC, but of course everything will hinge on him.
