| The Yankees have reportedly sold outfielder Todd Linden to Tohoku Rakuten of the Japanese Pacific League, according to the Scranton Times-Tribune. |
Our View: Linden was hitting .312 in Triple-A prior to the move. He had little chance to make the Yankees this season as they have a very deep outfield.

|
| LoHud.com reports that Todd Linden will be a non-roster invitee to the Yankees spring training. The outfielder has not played in the majors since 2007. |
Our View: Linden hit .353/.421/.482 in 85 spring training at-bats in 2007 with the A's. He will need to have a similar type spring to sniff the Yankees' 40-man roster.

| Outfielder Todd Linden has been signed to a minor league deal with the Indians, according to the TribeTimeReport.com. Linden, who was previous in the Athletics' organization, is headed to Triple-A Buffalo. |
Our View: The Indians are well stocked with outfielders, and Linden isn't likely to get called up this season, barring an injury.

| Todd Linden started in right field Wednesday and is scheduled to start again Friday, as manager Bruce Bochy is giving Randy Winn a few days "to freshen up," according to the AP. Bochy said Linden, who switch hits and can play all three outfield positions, may get close to 400 at-bats this season. |
