TAMPA, Fla. -- Starting what could be his final season with the New York Yankees, Gleyber Torres was clear about his intent.
"I don't want to leave," the 27-year-old infielder said Wednesday. "I want to be a Yankee for life."
Torres was an All-Star in his first two seasons with the Yankees in 2018 and 2019, slumped badly for two years and has rebounded to become a productive if not spectacular player. He hit .273 with 25 home runs, 68 RBIs and 13 stolen bases last season with an .800 OPS.
Torres has a one-year, $14.
