For the New York Yankees to have a productive off-season, they need to find and acquire players to fill the shortstop, outfield and starting pitching slots. After the failed experiment at shortstop with Gleyber Torres, the Yankees were thought to be interested in acquiring a big-money, long-term solution. But reports continuously indicate that management may prefer a stopgap instead of a big name like Carlos Correa.
In this predicted free agency haul, the Yankees walk away with upgrades at multiple spots, including a high-upside starting pitcher to pair with Gerrit Cole at the front of the rotation.
