Over the past few days, we’ve heard the rumblings of free agent JD Martinez being “fed up” waiting for a suitable contract from the Boston Red Sox. This discrepancy has led ESPN senior writer David Schoenfield to compile a list of clubs Martinez should now consider, including the Yankees.
Though the term “long shot” may not do this scenario justice — in his piece, Schoenfield suggests that if the Yanks were to add Martinez to their already robust offensive lineup, doing so would be more cost-effective than signing the likes of Manny Machado next offseason.
