Ken Rosenthal Benson rumors

TSN's Ken Rosenthal reports that the Yankees, the Cardinals, and the Angels have been debating the acquisition of Benson:

The Yankees scouted Pirates potential free-agent RHP Kris Benson recently; the Tampa faction of their front office is said to like him, but the New York faction does not. The Cardinals and Angels are among the clubs touching base on Benson, but numerous scouts and executives question whether the pitcher can handle the pressure of a pennant race. "He's such an underachiever, it's sick," one executive says. "He's tough to watch. It doesn't look like he has a pulse.". . .
Ouch.

Clay, thanks for this find.
