Last month, I wrote a piece calling for the New York Yankees to re-sign outfielder Andrew McCutchen this offseason. Today, I want to revisit that stance. The former National League MVP was just fine during his month-plus as a Yankee, but can he help win a World Series?
That’s a tough question. Moreover, what the Yankees decided to do about McCutchen could shape the rest of their offseason. Not only would keeping him set the outfield in stone, but his price could determine how New York addresses the pitching staff. The rotation needs help and should be the top priority this winter.
