The Yankees have had scout Rick Williams watching Texas in the Rangers' last two series. Rangers closer Eric Gagne is believed to be of interest to the Yankees as a possible setup man, though Rangers setup man and former closer Akinori Otsuka is also available.

Being a Red Sox fan, Yankees should definitely not do this.

This is good.

This is a dangerous move since Gange hasn't yet demonstrated that his long-term health is reliable. If Cashman is worth his salt, not only will he land Gagne, but he'll riddle that contract full of performance incentives.

...or maybe my boys in Queens can pull off the deal...

this is very, very good. I'm leaning more towards Aki, he did a fine job in San Diego setting up Hoffman. Gagne just seems like his best days are behind him. I agree with Gets_By_Buckner_86 on those points.

If they can manage to give up little in return for Gagne, then the Yanks could for sure use him. But lets not get ahead of ourselves..... he is not the answer to the Yankee long term issues and he probably wont make that much of an impact short term.
