Throwback to a trade that the New York Yankees should have made

Rob Refsnyder‘s tenure with the New York Yankees could be coming to a conclusion very soon, as George A. King III of the New York Post reports that they are hearing offers for the utility-man.

The former top prospect, who was named New York’s eighth-best by Baseball America in 2016, was a highly touted prospect out of the University of Arizona and was once regarded as a candidate to become the Yankees’ second baseman of the future.

However, the acquisition of Starlin Castro from the Chicago Cubs before the 2016 season sent Refsnyder into the role of a utility man, as he saw time at second base (eight games), left field (five games) third base (one game), right field (23 games) and first base (27 games) during his 58-game stint with the Bombers last season.
