The New York Yankees have been connected to a variety of potential trade partners, and the latest is Minnesota Twins star outfielder Byron Buxton. While general manager Brian Cashman has considered Starling Marte as a potential solution in centerfield, Buxton has elite potential, coming off a season when he recorded a .306 batting average with 19 homers and 32 RBIs.
The Twins could look to acquire significant assets in return for Buxton, who is just 27-years-old and coming off his best season as a professional. However, they are not completely sold on the concept due to the expected response of the fan base if he were to be moved.
