The New York Daily News reports that the Yankees are interested in free agent relief pitcher LaTroy Hawkins. They have begun talks with the former Colorado reliever, who is one of the few good pitchers willing to accept a one year deal. This is really attractive for many teams because they don’t have to make a commitment.

Hawkins pitched 55.1 innings with the Rockies this past season with an ERA of 3.42 and 29 strikeouts. Hawkins makes sense for the Yanks, especially since Joba Chamberlain is expected to start this season. Other teams interested in Hawkins are the Tigers (seems like they are interested in everyone doesn’t it?), Orioles, and Rangers.
