The Johnny Damon saga continues. He wanted to sign with the Yankees. The Yankees wanted Damon. But one thing stood in the way of an agreement: money, something which agent Scott Boras is obsessed with.
After I thought I made it pretty clear the Yankees were done looking for outfielders after acquiring Randy Winn and/or Marcus Thames. However, a decent percentage still predicted Yankees, but there’s really no shot.
The majority went with Detroit, and that happens to be the latest team that is “close” to an agreement with him. The reporters over at Fox Sports believe the deal could be a one-year, $7 million or a two-year, $14 million deal.
Sounds to me that the two parties just can’t agree on a length. In the end, I think this deal will get done before the end of the week.
