Newsday: Jack Cust, Vladimir Guerrero, Raul Ibañez reach out to Yankees
The representatives for Jack Cust, Vladimir Guerrero and Raul Ibañez have reached out to the Yankees, according to a person with knowledge of the situation, joining a list of applicants that also includes former Yankees Johnny Damon and Hideki Matsui and former Yankees minor-leaguer Carlos Peña.
I have a feeling that it doesn’t matter much how either Cust or Guerrero project at this point as I doubt the Yankees consider them realistic options. The same probably goes for Ibanez, but maybe SG can add them to the free agency RAJ list from an earlier thread if he deems it interesting enough.

Lohud: Jennings - Yankees reportedly out on Duchscherer
After an earlier report that the Orioles might be the favorite for Duchscherer, Dan Connolly of the Baltimore Sun reports that Duchscherer has narrowed his options to Baltimore, Seattle and Washington.
This probably means the Yankees will push harder on Freddy Garcia, but I’d have preferred Duchscherer. It’s kind of unlikely he’d have held up for a full season in the rotation, but who knows?
If Baltimore adds Vlad Guerrero, they’re going to be an interesting team. Right now I have them projected as around a 77-78 win team, but Duscherer plus Vlad might push them to .500 or so.
