Yankees & Infante Not Likely To Strike A Deal

The New York Yankees are unlikely to get a deal done with free agent second basemen Omar Infante. Infante is asking for the moon with a four year deal worth $40 million and the Yankees do not seem willing to go past three years and $24 million. One year and $16 million is a lot of reasons to spurn the Yankees and go elsewhere, whether it be to Kansas City or that good ole' mystery team. Omar is likely to cave a little to the Yankees or sign elsewhere and New York is turning their attention to free agent shortstop Stephen Drew. I called for the Yankees to get into the Drew sweepstakes, semi-sarcastically, a few weeks back so let's see how much of a prophet I am.
