Even as they dangle their own relievers in an attempt to upgrade their offense/bench/first-base situation with a player such as the Dodgers' Wilson Betemit, the Yankees are looking around at available relievers. The Yankees, along with the Braves, Dodgers, Diamondbacks and Cubs, have expressed interest in Kansas City right-hander Zack Greinke, a pitcher who could also serve as a starter if they were to need one in a pinch. The idea would be to unload somebody such as Kyle Farnsworth or Scott Proctor, but replace him with somebody like Greinke, who might be a fresh arm for the stretch run.
