Scott Sizemore is among nine players agreeing to minor-league contracts with the Yankees, giving New York another option for Alex Rodriguez's replacement at third base.
MLB is seeking a speedy dismissal of New York Yankees third baseman Alex Rodriguez's lawsuit challenging a season-long suspension.
The new hat was introduced Tuesday and will be available for testing during spring training on a voluntary basis. Major leaguers and minor leaguers won't be required to wear it.
Tampa officers reported Rodriguez was driving a red Mercedes the wrong direction on a one-way street. Tests determined his blood-alcohol to be 0.10 percent.
Paul Cartier's worlds are about to collide. He is the organist for both the Islanders at Nassau Coliseum and the Yankees, so it's only fitting that he will play the organ on Wednesday night when the Islanders host the Rangers.
"No," Brunner said when asked if he's heard of the Yankees' captain. "...No. The only baseball I know is (Justin) Verlander … because of the Tigers last year."
"We each signed Japanese pitchers this week," Alderson said. "They're paying $155 million and we're paying our guy month to month."
Masahiro Tanaka follows Aaron Boone, Dave Righetti, Luis Sojo, Bob Turley and Robin Ventura as notable Yankees to wear the number 19.
The Yankees have traded left-hander David Huff to the Giants for cash, two days after he was designated for assignment by New York to make room for Japanese ace Masahiro Tanaka.
"The game is pitching," Jeter said. "If you have great pitching, you always have an opportunity to win. From everything I've heard, he's going to be quite an addition to our team."

Babe Ruth's 1923 World Series championship pocket watch, for decades thought to be lost to history, is coming to a New York City auction, where it's expected to fetch at least $750,000.
As a longtime union leader, Glavine finds it "hard to believe" that Alex Rodriguez is claiming the MLBPA didn't do its job when they represented him in the grievance that lowered his 211-game suspension to 162 games.
If Tanaka and his Beethovian six-pitch mound symphony can turn into a No. 1 or No. 2 rotation option immediately, his richness in texture and rhythm can transform last year's also-ran into a contender. But let's not get ahead of ourselves here.
It seems there is at least one player who is unimpressed by the Yankees' offseason spending spree. Of course that player is on the Red Sox -- the world champion Red Sox he might add.
