Mark Feinsand later reported that the Yankees have interest in Maldonado with their current opening at backup catcher.
The Yankees have interest in C Martin Maldonado, per source. Interesting stats to consider: Maldonado caught Gerrit Cole 10 times in 2019 – and Cole had a 1.57 ERA and .471 opponent OPS in those starts, his lowest numbers with any of Houston's catchers last season.

If you know me then you know I’m not a fan of personal catchers.
