Yankees make offer to CC; Braves move on

• The Yankees have reportedly offered CC Sabathia a six-year deal worth $140 million. The Mets, Angels, and Dodgers hae all expressed interest in Sabathia, and the Brewers may still attempt to bring him back.
• According to sources, Manny Ramirez has told people close to him that he would love to play for the Marlins. However, that doesn't mean he will cave and accept a two-year deal from them. The Dodgers withdrew their two-year, $45 million offer to Ramirez today. They are still expected to try and re-sign him, though. The Angels are intrigued by Manny, but the general consensus is that Ramirez will not end up there.
• Minnesota has submitted an offer to Casey Blake. It is yet not known what the terms of the contract are, however.
  
• The Braves have gotten fed up with the Padres and are no longer pursuing Jake Peavy. For now, anyway. This could bring teams like the Yankees and Angels back into play, and it obviously opens the door for the Cubs. Atlanta is now looking at free agent pitchers A.J. Burnett, Derek Lowe, and Ryan Dempster. Burnett seems to be intrigued by the Braves. However, the Blue Jays reportedly are ready to offer the 31-year old right-hander a four-year, $45 million contract.
  
• Just because the Yankees acquired Nick Swisher does not mean that they won't make a play for Mark Teixeira. Adam Dunn may also be on the radar.
• The Rays and Cubs have both inquired about Jeremy Hermida, but it doesn't look like the Marlins are willing to give him up.
• The Dodgers are giving Randy Johnson a look.
