Jon Heyman was on the MLB network yesterday and discussed Johnny Damon's situation. Here's the quote via
Mike Axisa:
"He did meet or talk to the Yankees in the last couple of days. Still doesn't look like a great chance of happening though believe it or not. They are talking, but the Yankees have these budgetary constraints. They've been telling other teams they have about 2 million dollars to spend. I think for Damon they would probably go over that. I mean this is a guy who's had 100 runs scored 9 times and 24 home runs. Terrific player, but I would still say more likely Braves or Tigers, at this point."
Maybe Jerry Hairston Jr. was right when he said the Yankees were waiting for Damon's price to drop.
