The Yankees are now considering free-agent shortstop Stephen Drew, which could
potentially put another dent in the rival Red Sox's up-the-middle alignment
only weeks after the Yankees signed Boston star center fielder Jacoby Ellsbury.
There has been a thought the Yankees might be willing to keep spending after
landing star Japanese free agent pitcher Masahiro Tanaka. But while there
doesn't seem to be a push for another top starter or reliever, Drew is one free
agent the Yankees are at least weighing, according to people familiar with
their thinking.
The Yankees have spent $470 million already this winter, but there doesn't
appear to be a precise limit now that the luxury tax threshhold has already
been surpassed
