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.

The Braves, looking for left-handed relief help, are working on a deal with Texas for lefty C.J. Wilson. ... Greinke isn't the only available Royals reliever. The Cubs, Dodgers and Brewers have expressed interest in former Yankee Octavio Dotel, and lefty Jimmy Gobble is drawing interest from several places

Nemesis21,

Can you provide us with anymore information about Zack that we might not already know? What do you believe are the pros and cons about him?

I'm not a expert but if Zach can put his big personal demons behind him he can be a great pitcher.
