Yankees' Brett Gardner wants to play '2 or 3' more years, talks future

NEW YORK -- Yankees outfielder Brett Gardner would like to play "two or three more years" after this season, he said Tuesday.

Also, Gardner, who turns 35 in August, said he "wouldn't really want to play anywhere else," but that he'd consider it if the Yankees "don't want me here anymore and I still wanted to play a couple more years."

"We'll cross that bridge when we get there," he said, sitting at his locker in Yankee Stadium clubhouse.

Gardner is in the final guaranteed season of a four-year, $52-million contract extension, according to Cot's Baseball Contracts.
