Whether the news of Derek Jeter's retirement had anything to do with it or not remains to be seen but the Yankees have recently been scouting Cuban shortstop Aledmys Diaz. Just as a quick reminder Diaz is ineligible to sign until next week due to originally lying about his age. Diaz is 23 years old and will not count against the International Spending cap this season and is treated as a true free agent.
