    According to Tony Wible, a Philadelphia-based analyst who covers media companies for Janney Montgomery Scott LLC, the Yanks are worth $2.85 billion.

    Yankees will try to trade OF Justin Maxwell because he's out of minor league options

    I also read that Girardi's considering putting two lefties in the bullpen, so he wouldn't be choosing between Cesar Cabral and Clay Rapada.

    Signed 1B/OF Steve Pearce to a minor league deal. He was recently cut by the Twinkies after signing a minor league deal with them in December.

    Granderson's elbow soreness led to a precautionary MRI which came back negative. His first game back he went 1 for 4.

    Yankees released 1B Russell Branyan from his minor league contract and re-signed him to a new one... To save $100,000. lol.

    I see the Yankees may have to trade Garcia as he won't accept a demotion if he ends up being the odd man out. I figured he could be the long reliever..they really do have too much right now.

    Why would they demote him? He's been open to being in the bullpen if he's the odd man out throughout spring training (unless he changed his mind very recently)

    Thanks for the blunt answer. I don't read too much into that; Girardi's just addressing the possibility that if the "#6 starter" happens to be the 26th best player on the roster that he's not guaranteed a spot just because he happens to be the "#6 starter".

    I see plenty in that especially with Pettitte still lurking only a few weeks away.

    Pettitte hasn't even thrown in his first spring game yet...
