According to Bob Klapisch of the Bergen Record, the Yankees are not initiating calls with representatives for free agent DH-types.
They don’t really need to. With plenty of veteran hitters left in the free agent market, the Yankees have the ability to field calls from desperate agents and wait for the best possible deal. Carlos Pena, Johnny Damon, Hideki Matsui, Vladimir Guerrero and Raul Ibanez have all been mentioned as possible fits.
