Yankees Interested In Rowand If They Deal Melky
28th November, 2007 - 11:48 am
Star-Ledger - The Yankees are apparently willing to consider moving Melky Cabrera, who hit .291 with 58 RBI after taking over as the Yankees' regular center fielder, because they told the agent for free-agent center fielder Aaron Rowand they would have interest in Rowand if they trade Cabrera.

That conversation was confirmed by a person with knowledge of the conversation who asked not to be named because the Yankees like to keep their free-agent pursuits under the radar. The agent, Craig Landis, said only that the interest in Rowand -- a strong defender who this year with Philadelphia hit .309 with 27 homers and 89 RBI -- "is strong and has picked up" since center fielder Torii Hunter came off the market, signing with the Angels. Landis said "nothing is imminent" as far as Rowand's signing. [READ]
