Yankees Reportedly Will 'Be In Early' on Cliff Lee

Stop me if you've heard this before: the New York Yankees won't waste any time in courting this winter's biggest free-agent pitcher.

Well, I'm going to continue anyway.

The Yankees, who were eliminated in the ALCS by the Texas Rangers, will try to take the most-prized possession from the World Series runners-up, lefthander Cliff Lee, who made New York look feeble this postseason.

In fact, one baseball official told the New York Daily News that the Yanks "will be in early with Lee. ... I don't know if they'll make an offer right away, but they'll be in quickly."

The exclusive window for teams to negotiate with their own free agents expires Saturday at midnight.
