Top stories from last week:
- Both Chad Gaudin and Boone Logan avoided arbitration, getting $2.95M (plus incentives) and $590,000, respectively. The Yankees also invited reliever Zack Segovia to Spring Training as a non-roster player.
- Johnny Damon Zone: The two sides began speaking again, and the Yankees presented a low offer to Damon. Jerry Hairston Jr. said the team never made him an offer because they were waiting on Damon’s price to come down. No one’s really sure what Damon thinks he’s going get.
- In case the whole Damon thing doesn’t work out, the Yanks contacted Jim Edmonds, and may or may not have had talks with the Rangers about Nelson Cruz. Despite the lack of experience, the bench isn’t a concern because the Yankees now won’t be the Yankees later. Brett Gardner is looking to step up his game as well.
- Javier Vazquez wants to take it year by year at this point, and there’s a chance the team might even extract some value out of Kei Igawa.
- Based on projections, the Yankees figure to again be a 900 run offense in 2010.
- Alex Rodriguez won the Babe Ruth Award.
