Nearly two weeks ago, we shared news of a report regarding the Yankees’ mindset for the upcoming trade deadline. For fans wanting to see the Bombers go all in and buy, it wasn’t a pretty sight.
Ken Rosenthal of The Athletic recently commented on the Yankees’ potential trade-deadline plans. As it currently stands, New York is $1.1 million over the $293 million luxury tax threshold. While they’ll most likely have their 2024 first-round draft pick pushed back 10 spots, they could avoid a harsh financial penalty if they dip back under that number before the end of the season.
