Maybe the three-teamer between the Tigers, Yankees, and Diamondbacks isn’t dead after all. Jon Heyman tweets that the deal, which would net the Yankees Curtis Granderson and the Diamondbacks Edwin Jackson, is “back with a chance.”

The Mets have signed 32-year-old infielder Mike Hessman to a minor-league deal, according to the New York Daily News.

Ken Rosenthal agrees with what Buster Olney told us yesterday regarding free agent outfielder Jason Bay. The Mariners like Bay, writes Rosenthal, but “not that much” because they fear how his below-average defense will play in Safeco Field.

Rosenthal also writes that the Nationals plan to use newly signed catcher Ivan Rodriguez in “only 70 games” because they “believe that he wore down playing in 121 games” for the Astros last season. He also notes that clubs are confused by the signing given his diminished catching tools at 38.
