NEWPORT BEACH, Calif. (AP) -- Bernie Williams has a big decision ahead. The
New York Yankees have offered the former All-Star outfielder a minor league
contract and an invite to spring training.
The offer was reported Wednesday on Sports Illustrated's Web site and
confirmed by a baseball official who spoke on condition of anonymity because
the team didn't publicly disclose the offer.
''I'm waiting to hear from Bernie,'' Williams' agent, Scott Boras, said
Wednesday. ''Once I talk to him, he'll let me know what he's thinking.''
The 38-year-old Williams has been with the Yankees since 1991 and has
expressed a desire to remain with them. But with the team's plan to go with
12 pitchers, platoon at first base and move Jason Giambi to designated
hitter, there is no spot on a 25-man roster for Williams at this point.
Johnny Damon took Williams' job as the starter in center last year, and Melky
Cabrera is slated to be the fourth outfielder.
New York manager Joe Torre likes Williams' abilities, which could weigh in
his favor if he does come to camp.
Williams filled in capably last season when Hideki Matsui and Gary Sheffield
were injured, batting .281 with 12 homers and 61 RBIs.
He told The Journal News in Westchester, N.Y., last week that he has other
interests in his life now that are just as important to him as baseball.
''When you give a large chunk of your life to a team, it is hard. It's not
like I am a journeyman,'' Williams said. ''When you play this game for a long
time, you take things for granted and think it won't end. But the harsh
reality of it is, it will.''
