Yankees Linked To Superstar Fireballer In Possible Surprise Move

The New York Yankees already have made one major move this offseason and could have at least one more up their sleeves before the 2024 season comes around.

New York has been in the news lately as it heavily pursued former Orix Buffaloes ace Yoshinobu Yamamoto. At one point it seemed like the Yankees were actually going to land the young star, but things didn’t work out.

The Los Angeles Dodgers landed Yamamoto with a massive contract recently leading the Yankees to have to regroup and consider its options.

Luckily for New York, there still are plenty of intriguing options available to help the club in 2024. If the Yankees opt to bolster the bullpen, one player who could be an option is superstar fireballer Josh Hader, according to SNY’s Anthony McCarron.

“Over the past three seasons, the Yanks have built terrific bullpens, finishing fourth in (Major League Baseball) in relief ERA in 2021 (3.56) and then third (2.97) and first (3.34) over the next two years,” McCarron said. So maybe they wallpaper their bullpen with elite arms to keep other teams from scoring and sign Josh Hader (1.28 ERA with San Diego last year) and Jordan Hicks (81 strikeouts in 65.2 innings over two stops) to add toClay Holmes, et al? Old pal David Robertson is a free agent, too.”

Hader is one of the best relief pitchers in baseball and would be a major pickup for the Yankees. He would be extremely expensive, but adding him would go a long way in cementing the Yankees as having the best bullpen in baseball again in 2024.
