YANKS IN "SERIOUS TALKS" WITH BILL HALL

The Yankees are in serious talks with one time Red Sox utility man Bill Hall, tweets Ken Rosenthal of FOX Sports and notes that the 32-year-old has worked out in the off season with Yankees hitting coach Kevin Long.  Hall began the 2011 season as the Astros' starting second baseman and finished the season on the Giants.  Hall finished with only a .211 Avg. and a pair of home runs, which was was way off his 2010 season, in which he hit 18 home runs in 382 plate appearances.

Although no deal is imminent Bleeding Yankee Blue was all over two months ago. Casey wrote:  "You want a bench player with wisdom and pop? Bill Hall is your guy. Not only can the guy play second base to give Robinson Cano a break once in a while, he can also be a 4th outfielder. Don’t dismiss this idea, Bill Hall may have bounced around to a few teams over the last few years, but that’s because he is unique."  Hey, never dismiss Casey's crystal ball! :)
