Yankees To Make No Arb Offers To Free Agents

The Yankees will not make any arbitration offers to their free agents, tweets Joel Sherman of the New York Post.  That includes Johnny Damon (A), Andy Pettitte (B), Xavier Nady (B), and Hideki Matsui (neither).  The Yanks didn't make any offers last year either.

We predicted these correctly, though one could make a case for Damon or Pettitte.  The market for Damon should improve, now that he will not cost a draft pick.  Talking to George King of the New York Post, Damon's agent Scott Boras kind of hinted that multiple teams have interest in his client.
