Yankees utilityman Jerry Hairston, Jr., Giants infielder Rich Aurilia and Mets reliever Elmer Dessens each filed for free agency on Tuesday.

The free agent list has now reached 154 players through the first six days of the 15-day election period.

Hairston joined the Yankees at the trade deadline last year and hit .237 with two homers and 12 RBI in 45 regular season games for the World Series champs. He appeared in six games in the postseason and went 2-for-8 at the plate.

Aurilia hit a career low .213 in an injury-riddled 2009 season for San Francisco. The 15-year veteran is a career .275 hitter with 186 home runs and 756 RBI in 1,652 games.

Dessens, a veteran of 13 years, threw to a 3.31 earned-run average in 28 appearances last year for New York.
