Yankees deny they are leaving Tampa

Some reports have suggested that the Yankees are considering moving their spring training facility from Tampa.

The Yankees issued the  following statement:

``Reports today that the New York Yankees are considering moving the spring training facility from Tampa are completely erroneous. The Yankees are in very preliminary discussions regarding the possibility of a partial sale of their Single-A Tampa minor league affiliate to a potential group of Orange County, Fla., investors. The investors will make an announcement tomorrow. These exploratory conversations will have no impact on the Yankees’ spring training facility or the Major League team.”
