Ken Rosenthal of Foxsports reports that the New York Yankees are seriously considering trading for Texas Rangers Gold Glove First BasemanMark Teixeria. They want Phil Hughes or Melky Caberera. The Yankees plan to hold onto both players, but hope a deal can be worked out.

Last season, Teixeria, 27, hit .282 with 33 homers, 110 RBIs, and a .514 slugging precentage. Teixeria is a good player, but would giving up a good young prospect be worth the price?
