From MLB Trade Rumors.com: (Ben Nicholson-Smith):
The Yankees were ‘on the brink’ of acquiring Cliff Lee last night in a deal that would include top catching prospect Jesus Montero, according to Joel Sherman of the New York Post. Seattle GM Jack Zduriencik wants to move quickly and has been in ‘constant contact’ with Yankees GM Brian Cashman over the course of the last week, according to Sherman. Other clubs remain involved, but the Yankees are the heavy favorite to acquire the lefty.

Talks are intensifying between the Yankees and Mariners, Jon Heyman of SI.com confirms. Discussions between the Yankees and Mariners appear serious and it’s ‘quite possible’ that a deal will be completed.
Sabathia-Lee-Burnett-Pettitte-Vazquez-Hughes…could it be?
