The top of the free agent market moved relatively fast this offseason. There’s still a significant crop of veteran free agents on the market, however, and some of them could remain available over the next few weeks as teams round out their rosters before spring training.
The Yankees’ 26-man roster appears pretty much set, but trades and injuries can always change things at a moment’s notice, and Brian Cashman is always looking to improve his club. Remember, in 2018 the Yankees signed Neil Walker to a one-year deal on March 12th. Last season they swung a trade for Mike Tauchman on March 23rd, slightly reshaping the roster just days before the opener.
