What’s taking so long for the Yankees to officially announce the re-signing of Gardner?
Well, right now their 40-man roster is full which means they still have to clear up another spot to make room for the veteran outfielder. Before the signing of Gerrit Cole became official on December 18th the Yankees had to clear up two rosters; one for him and one for Gardy. There was thought they would clear up the spots by making a trade but that didn’t happen so they decided to designate pitcher Chance Adams for assignment to make room for their newest ace.
