Bombers bits

• Cashman said if the Yankees did decide to try and upgrade the catcher position in light of Cervelli's recent setback, they would likely look within the organization due to a "thin" trade market. One possible candidate for a callup is catcher JR Murphy, who was promoted from Double-A Trenton to Triple-A Scranton/Wilkes-Barre. He's batting .275 with nine home runs and 34 RBIs this season.

• Second baseman Robinson Cano has some players in mind for his American League All-Star Home Run Derby team, but he's not willing to share those until the official announcement on Monday.

When asked if one of the players he planned to choose is playing for the other team -- referring to Orioles first baseman Chris Davis, the Major League home run leader -- Cano said, "Nice try."
