ERIC CHAVEZ RUMORS & GOSSIP

The Pirates and Yankees have agreed on the numbers but not the players. The Pirates are rumored to be willing to pay $13-15MM of the $33MM, while the Yankees will absorb the $19-23MM owed to Burnett.

Yankees fail to sign Nakajima, turn interest to Chavez

The Yankees announced that they could not reach an agreement with Japanese infielder Hiroyuki Nakajima after they won the posting for him last month with a $2 million bid.
