Brian McCann's agent, B.B. Abbott, said Monday that his free agent client is interested in the Yankees. New York's catching situation was an offensive nightmare in 2013, so it's no surprise that player and team are already making eyes at each other. Abbott said New York is "certainly a place that is on Brian's radar. How could it not be? You've got an historic franchise and a great park, knowledgeable fans and a chance to win, which is what every guy plays the game for." McCann received a one-year, $14.1 million qualifying offer from the Braves on Monday. He will decline that offer and try to cash in on the open market.
