AP reports Jason Thompson remains in limbo as a three way deal falters over a $400,000 cap. Pittsburgh and California Angels completed a partial trade for Thompson, Ott, and Mahler while the Yankees’ portion was blocked. Thompson, 26, hit .288 with 21 HR and 88 RBI last year. If talks fail, he could stay with Pittsburgh or move as free agent next season.
