"&lt;p&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Pitcher David Robertson has turned down the New York Yankees' $15.3 million qualifying offer, reports Jack Curry of YES Network.&amp;nbsp;\r\n\r\n&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;According to Curry, the Yankees will continue to negotiate with the closer and hope to sign him to a multi-year deal.&amp;nbsp;\r\n\r\n&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Since the Yankees extended a qualifying offer and were declined, if Robertson signs with a different team, New York will receive a&amp;nbsp;compensatory pick in the 2015 MLB Draft.&amp;nbsp;\r\n\r\n&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;\u2022 &lt;strong&gt;AL East Hot Stove Preview: O's try to hold off Yankees, Red Sox&lt;/strong&gt;\r\n\r\n&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Robertson had a 3.08 ERA, 39 saves and 96 strikeouts in 64.1 innings in 2014. The 29-year-old is a former 17th-round draft pick by New York in 2006.\r\n\r\n&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;New York is reportedly also in talks to re-sign third baseman Chase Headley&amp;nbsp;and would like to re-sign pitcher Brandon McCarthy. On Sunday, the Yankees re-signed outfielder Chris Young to a one-year deal.&amp;nbsp;\r\n\r\n&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;\u2022&amp;nbsp;\u200B&lt;strong&gt;Yankees, Mets and Dodgers interested in SS Alexei Ramirez&lt;/strong&gt;\r\n\r\n&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;The Yankees went 84-79 last season, missing the playoffs for the second straight year.&amp;nbsp;\r\n\r\n&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;- &lt;em&gt;Molly Geary&lt;/em&gt;\r\n&lt;/p&gt;"^^<http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema#string>
