Hearing from multiple sources that Joey Gallo is being traded to the New York Yankees.

I will caution all of you, yes he strikes out a lot, but oh boy does this make the Yankees better. Gallo can play CF, LF, 1B, and can hit BOMBS. He is replacing Brett Gardner essentially (or at least he should). Don’t focus on his .223 batting average, he gets on base at a .379 clip and his wRC+ is 140 (40% better than league average). Gallo becomes the best offensive threat the Yankees have, next to Judge.
