INDIANAPOLIS (AP) --
INDIANAPOLIS (AP) - A person familiar with the negotiations says
the Yankees, Tigers and Diamondbacks are nearing agreement on a
three-team trade that would send star center fielder Curtis
Granderson from Detroit to New York.
The World Series champion Yankees would trade right-hander Ian
Kennedy to Arizona, and lefty reliever Phil Coke and outfield
prospect Austin Jackson to Detroit, the person said on condition of
anonymity because the trade was not yet final.
Detroit would deal pitcher Edwin Jackson to the Diamondbacks,
and Arizona would send pitchers Max Scherzer and Daniel Schlereth
to the Tigers.
The teams are still working on technical aspects of the trade,
the person said Tuesday, including checking medical records.
