King III of the New York Post reports that the Mariners are prepared for the Yankees to have interest in acquiring left-hander Cliff Lee.
The team's most immediate need is to find another bat, and they have had scouts following the Astros in recent days, but the Yankees should never be discounted as a potential destination for Lee. According to King, the Mariners are currently scouting the Yankees organization thoroughly and have interest in prospect shortstop Eduardo Nunez and either prospect catcher Austin Romine or Jesus Montero. For the Yankees to give up such a haul, they would likely try to lock Lee up to a contract extension. There's still a lot of time before the trade deadline, so look for Lee to be connected to many teams in the days to come.
