The Yankees made the first big splash of the 2019 offseason last week with the acquisition of the excellent James Paxton. The move instantly made the Yankees a more talented team, and there is a decent argument to be made that Paxton will be the best available pitcher of the offseason. But the Yanks still only have four starters, so they are not done yet—and Brian Cashman now has a chance to build one of the game’s dominant rotations by signing Patrick Corbin.
Corbin, a native New Yorker, has always seemed excited about the opportunity to play in the Bronx.
