The Weekend Yankeeland - 11/2
Welcome to the end of Daylight Savings Time. :( We're now in that dark, cold section of time until Spring Training. We imagine though that the Hot Stove league should be pretty hot in the metro area like it was last week.
Bobby Abreu filed for free agency this week and the NY Post reports that the Yankees will probably offer him arbitration. The Post also reports that the Yankees will not likely pick up Damaso Marte's $6 million option, opting for the quarter-million buyout instead. This doesn't mean the Yankees won't be interested in bringing Marte back.
Hank Steinbrenner confirmed that the Yankees will take a look at Manny Ramirez as an option for next year and beyond. It's unlikely though that the Yankees would be willing to give Manny the contract length (5 years?) and money ($100 million?) he is looking for.
The Yankees have add Wil De La Rosa and Eric Hacker to the 40-man roster.
Brett Gardner told MLB.com's Bryan Hoch that he's ready to compete for the starting center field job in '09.
Jack Curry says there are other big free agents besides CC Sabathia, Manny, and Mark Teixeira.
