Wiretap: Yankees Express Interest in Harden

Popular pitchers on view: Rich Harden will start at Phoenix today, and Joe Blanton at Mesa, splitting the scouting hordes that have been watching the two all spring. Both are potential candidates to be traded, and the Yankees apparently have expressed interest in Harden, according to one source.
The A's, however, won't provide any real discount for Harden, even though he has been hurt much of the past three years. They probably would ask for right-hander Ian Kennedy, for starters, and perhaps pitchers Alan Horne and Jeff Marquez as well.
He's injury prone, but the guy throws gas when he's healthy...

Rather see them go after him through free agency. They will have tons of money to spend with 50+ coming off the books (I believe) and lots of quality pitchers on the market.

If only this were a good idea... oh, the Harden/Wang joke potential.
