The New York Yankees have a pitching problem, with the only reliable arm being Gerrit Cole. Masahiro Tanaka was thrashed on Tuesday evening, and the remainder of the starters have been inconsistent to start the 2020 season. At this rate, I am cautiously optimistic the Yankees have enough talent to carry them to World Series appearances this year. Ultimately, they need another starter, and that is where Clint Frazier comes into play.
With the Yankees heading toward the August 31 trade deadline, one MLB insider believes that they should utilize Frazier’s value now.
MLB insider Jim Bowden of The Athletic proposes an interesting trade that could work in the Yankees’ favor, as they desperately need starting pitching.
