Former Mets slugger Carlos Delgado will be questioned on Wednesday about his relationship with Anthony Galea, according to the New York Daily News.
"I talked to Joe on two different occasions," Steinbrenner said. "I made it clear to him that we do want him back. My family thinks he did a great job this season given everything that happened. We're gonna try to work something out."
Alex Rodriguez's lawsuit claiming Major League Baseball and Commissioner Bud Selig went on a "witch hunt" to force him from the sport has been moved from state to federal court.
Say it ain't so, Joe! The Yankees manager "wants to formally explore the Cubs' opening after weeks of back-channel feelers," according to the Chicago Sun-Times.
Curtis Granderson is coming off a nightmarish season, but it appears he will have his fair share of suitors when he files for unrestricted free agency.
Girardi has strong Chicago roots. He grew up in East Peoria, Illinois, attended Northwestern University and played for the Cubs from 1989-1992, and then again from 2000-2002.
The Hall of Famer alleges that he wasn't selected No. 1 overall in the 1966 draft because the Mets thought he'd be a "social problem" due to his relationship with a Mexican woman, according to the New York Post.
Former Yankees manager Joe Torre doesn't see himself becoming the next commissioner of Major League Baseball. But he'd think about it.
At the end of it, he may be suspended for 0 games, 211 games or somewhere in between. But contractually, right now, he simply hasn't been damaged.
The suit said that Yankees physician Dr. Christopher Ahmad of New York Presbyterian Hospital did not inform him of the tear.
Yankees general manager Brian Cashman met with Girardi on Monday and with the manager's agent, Steve Mandell, on Wednesday.

Few can match the total package that the team of Boomer and Carton provide on a given football Friday. Check that. No one can duplicate what the Dynamic Radio Duo bring to the table.
Granderson, 32, will be an unrestricted free agent after the playoffs, but his agent told the NY Post on Wednesday the veteran outfielder doesn't want to go anywhere.
Hispanics Across America president Fernando Mateo joined WFAN's "Boomer & Carton" program on Thursday to put the Yankees and MLB on blast for what he calls an "injustice" against Alex Rodriguez.
The "Boomer & Carton" show decided to put a few supporters to the test. Show staffer Tommy Lugauer headed to the MLB offices on Wednesday, delivering his results Thursday morning.
The Yankees want Joe Girardi back -- so they'd better work quickly. New York will have less than a month to hammer out a deal before the Chicago Cubs can make their move.
The Yanks could be in rare, rebuild mode. The Mets lost Harvey long after they lost their season. The Giants are a staggering 0-4. The Jets are returning to their forlorn form. The Knicks aren't even the best team in the five boroughs. God help us.
Alex Rodriguez is appealing his 211-game suspension related to MLB's latest performance-enhancing drugs scandal, and a picture of his defense is finally starting to emerge. Or is it?
Craig got to wondering what in the world is going on down there at the MLB offices on Park Avenue, so he decided to send Tommy Lugauer over there to investigate.
"He knows we'd like to have him stay and continue as manager of the New York Yankees as we move forward," general manager Brian Cashman said Tuesday.
