Joel Sherman of the New York Post, who has me blocked on Twitter for some reason, has reported that the Yankees have offer free agent second basemen Omar Infante a three year deal worth a reported $24 million. That obviously fits Infante's demands for $8 million annually and a long term deal, although does not fit his four year demands. Infante, according to Jon Heyman, is looking for four years and $40 million all of a sudden so let's see who budges first, the Yankees, Infante, or the Kansas City Royals. The Yankees are sticking to their guns, for now, that they have no intentions of going for four years on Infante so stay tuned. This could get done today.

Can't stop laughing at the fact that Joel Sherman has you blocked on Twitter...he must not like Greedy People!
ReplyDeleteI still think $8 million per for a guy that arguably has only had 3 decent seasons in his career could demand that kind of money. His lifetime batting average is .279 with an average of 10 HRs and 56 RBI over an 162-game season. I guess I am just reminded of how crappy he was batting when he played for the Toledo Mud Hens and Detroit Tigers earlier in his career. But what the heck do I know...he'll do...
Yeah it came shortly after he blew up on Joe Girardi after that game in 2012. I was very... articulate. Guess he can dish it but not take it. His loss, not mine.
