Free-agent outfielder Nick Swisher is attracting interest from at least six teams according to Jon Heyman of CBS Sports.
The Mariners, Orioles, Phillies, Giants, Braves and Nationals are all believed to have some level of interest. Several teams seem willing to go to at least three years, with the likely salary figure estimated to be in the $11 million to $13 million range. With so many teams possibly interested there's a very good chance he'll be able to get at least a four-year deal.
A source told the New York Daily News that at least five teams -- including the Mariners and Rangers -- have expressed interest in Swisher.
