CARLOS RUIZ IS ON THE YANKEES LIST

According to Jayson Stark of ESPN, Phillies Catcher Carlos Ruiz is currently on the Yankees radar.  He tweeted that below:

First appearance of the weekend by a #Yankees scout in Philly. Michael Young & Carlos Ruiz could both be on NY radar screen this month.

Now he also Tweeted that Michael Young, the Phillies 3rd baseman is also a possibility, but you guys are smart enough to know that we already told you that a week ago in BIG TRADE RUMORS IN YANKEELAND.

We wrote then, "George King III of the New York Post (HERE) has the best nugget so far this year.  With Kevin Youkilis out, and Alex Rodriguez still out, he's suggesting maybe the Yankees would be interested in Young.  King says: "One feature that makes him a good fit in The Bronx is that he isn’t signed beyond this season, when he earns $16 million. The Rangers are paying $10 million of that. Essentially, the Phillies owe Young $3 million for the rest of the season."

I am a huge Ruiz fan and would love him in pinstripes.  In fact, I may be at the Phillies-White Sox game this upcoming Friday night.  If I am, I'll let you know what I think.  Could be fun.
