The Yankees have been active this offseason, but rather than rushing into another major acquisition before Opening Day, they may be better off waiting until the summer trade deadline to make a splash.
With a farm system that has taken a hit after sending multiple top prospects to San Diego for Juan Soto last offseason, the Yankees need time to replenish their assets before making another aggressive move. By the time July rolls around, some of their young talent may have built up enough trade value to facilitate another impact addition—one that could push them over the top.
