With an underwhelming off-season thus far, many Yankee fans hope to see Trevor Story and more before Opening Day on April 7th. The Yankees missed on opportunities to sign multiple big name Free Agents at a fraction of their original market price when the market first opened up in November of 2021.
"The league has closed the gap on us", they said. The league closed the gap on the New York Yankees a long, long time ago. And they have yet to go back to a fully operational Death Star with a loaded checkbook left empty, and Plan C's being their "best" option moving forward into the 2022 regular season. We can all only hope as fans that Hal lets Cashman open the books up for guys like Story, Conforto, and to make a trade for a #2 in a lacking rotation. The Yankees are in the toughest division in baseball, and as it looks right now, they are at best a 3rd place team with just hopes and no certainty of locking up a wildcard spot.
