The New York Yankees have a glaring hole at the shortstop position, since they decided that Gleyber Torres would be the team second baseman in 2022. They have stated that filling that spot is an offseason priority.
Fortunately, there are several quality shortstops available in the market: Carlos Correa, Corey Seager, Javier Baez, Trevor Story, and others. Correa could be the most expensive of all, as he is likely to command a deal north of $200 million.
However, one MLB insider is worried about him signing with the Yankees given the experiences that one of Correa’s former teammates, Gerrit Cole, has had to endure in his time with the Bronx.
