We’re glad Buck Showalter isn’t in charge of the Yankees rotation for 2021. He isn’t…right?
It seems quite likely the Yankees will lose both Masahiro Tanaka and James Paxton this offseason.
The latter’s as good as gone, and unless he’s willing to accept a one- or two-year deal (or wait forever to see what DJ LeMahieu chooses), the former could swiftly follow.
