Yankees: What would it take to lure Starling Marte out of Miami?

The New York Yankees could really use a center fielder. Ever since Aaron Hicks went down with a wrist injury, the position has been problematic for the Bombers, who have had to field Aaron Judge there because the best fit there, Brett Gardner, is slashing .206/.311/.316.

That is why the Yankees have been connected to the two Martes, Ketel and Starling, from the Arizona Diamondbacks and the Miami Marlins, respectively.

Marte, who is currently 32, will be a free agent after the season, and while he has voiced his interest to remain in Florida, the Marlins rarely commit to aging, pricey free agents.
