The Yankees re-signed Derek Jeter to a one-year, $12 million deal on November 1st, and now there close to wrapping up Brendan Ryan for one more year, but that doesn't mean they're done adding shortstops.
The Yankees have expressed interest in free-agent shortstop Jhonny Peralta, reports Jon Morosi and Ken Rosenthal of FOX Sports.
Peralta would seem to make sense for the Yankees if Alex Rodriguez, who resumed his appeal hearing with MLB on Monday, is suspended for most or all of the 2014 season. He would also be able to spell Jeter a shortstop when needed.
Peralta also learned to play left field for the Detroit Tigers for the final three games of the 2013 season and into the playoffs after serving a 50-game suspension for his involvement in the Biogenesis scandal.
Before being suspended, Peralta earned the second All-Star selection of his career. He finished the season with an .815 OPS in 107 games with the Tigers.
He also been drawing interest from the Yankees' cross-town rivals, the New York Mets.
