In a report today from George King III of the New York Post that was picked up by the MLBTradeRumors site (and others), the Yankees are indeed scouting and showing definite interest in Jose Peraza – a report we gave you from scout Jeff Wren two days ago.
Quoting writer King:
The Yankees have let the Braves know they have an interest in Atlanta’s second-base prospect Jose Peraza who is currently playing at Triple-A.
