NYY have been open to talks about Curtis Granderson. If they move his $15m salary, it would provide more flexibility to do other things.

With the signings of BJ Upton and Angel Pagan, I'm not sure how many teams would be in on Granderson. After all, we are talking about a guy that saw his walk rate decrease quite a bit, while his strikeout rate went way up. Of course, we're talking about a guy that's hit 84 home runs the last two years, and there are very few guys that could do that. So this could make things interesting.
The problem with trading Granderson is replacing his power. The Yankees have already lost a guy that can hit around 25 homers a year (Swisher), and couple that with ARod going down for while, which may lead to the loss of the #evilhomerun hashtag.
