"I wanted to know if you believe the Yankees will sign Jermaine Dye, another free agent, or go with their own talent? Or, if they go with their own talent, who will be there outfielders in 2010? --Robert Montin, Birmingham, Ala.
Robert: They aren't in the running for Dye, who really doesn't fit what they're trying to do defensively. The guess here is that they go for someone along the lines of Jerry Hairston/Randy Winn type, someone who has some versatility and plays decent defense. Johnny Damon is a longshot, if he'd be willing to come back and play for a 50 to 60 percent pay cut."
As a fantasy player, I'd prefer Brett Gardner to see a lot of time and provide cheap SBs. As a Yankees fan, adding a professional like Rany Winn to work with Gardner makes the team stronger defensively.
I'd prefer Damon, though. Proven players in New York mean something.
