With Curtis Granderson out until May, ex-New York Yankee Johnny Damon has a message for his former team -- give me a call. Speaking on ESPN New York 98.7 FM's Michael Kay Show, Damon said he is willing to play just the five or so weeks of the regular season that Granderson will miss and he even would take a league-minimum contract to return to the Bronx. "You guys know that I would have tons of interest to go to New York," Damon told Kay and co-host Don LaGreca. "But I just don't think they would be interested. I'm not exactly sure what happened over the years or something. They have had plenty of opportunities and I kept raising my hand, wanting to go back and, you know, hopefully it would be a perfect fit. It always had been. Have me for six weeks and then send me off on my merry way. That's fine." Damon, 39, played four seasons with the Yankees, which included 2009, his final year with the team, when the franchise won its last championship. He was not re-signed after his agent, Scott Boras, and Yankees general manager Brian Cashman disagreed over terms of a new deal. Damon has bounced to three different teams in the past three years.
