On Thursday I wrote a post about Didi Gregorius and the slim possibility that the Yankees would actually non-tender him and let him become a free agent at tonight’s deadline. Well according to Ken Davidoff of the New York Post the Yankees and GM Brian Cashman plan on tendering a contract to all of their arbitration-eligible players so Didi isn’t going anywhere.
That’s great news and not surprising at all considering how important a piece Didi is to this Yankee team if they want to win a championship in 2019. Of course, he’ll miss a large chunk of next season but when he returns he should provide a huge boost to what will already be a great team.
