The Yankees discussed the possibility of acquiring Mike Lowell from the Red Sox prior to Saturday's trade deadline, according to sources.

The Red Sox were not going to trade Lowell directly to the Yankees, sources said.

The deal would have involved the Rangers, who then would have traded Lowell to New York with Boston's knowledge.

The Yankees' acquisition of Lance Berkman didn't deter them from going after Lowell, according to a source.
