"The New York Yankees have begun contract negotiations with free agent outfielder Johnny Damon, major league sources tell ESPN The Magazine's Buster Olney. If the Yankees are unable to re-sign Damon, they are likely to look at free agents Mark DeRosa and Mike Cameron as options for their outfield, sources said (ESPN)."
Damon is getting up there in age, but he proved last year that he is still lethal in the batters box (.282 with a career-high-tying 24 home runs, 82 RBIs and 107 runs scored). The Yankees are basically ready to go if they can resign him, but I actually expect them to add another starting pitcher before the season starts. Once again, this will be a very dangerous team.
