One Nationwide League crew is seemingly making an attempt very exhausting to persuade the New York Yankees to promote.
The Miami Marlins are “pushing exhausting” for second baseman Gleyber Torres, in keeping with Randy Miller of NJ.com. Nonetheless, the Yankees’ asking value of MLB starters Edward Cabrera and Braxton Garrett, in addition to two prospects, is increased than what the Marlins are keen to pay.
The Marlins need to hand over minor league prospects for Torres, however the Yankees’ refusal to just accept that asking value means that they most likely don’t view themselves as sellers. That’s doubly true with Aaron Choose’s return to motion, which the Yankees presumably hope will spur an offensive revival.
The Marlins are proving to be shock contenders and have already added a giant identify to the again of their bullpen. Torres actually is a giant goal, as he’s nonetheless solely 26 and is hitting .258 with 16 dwelling runs for the Yankees this season. That isn’t the kind of participant a would-be contender would usually be serious about buying and selling, particularly since he’s nonetheless underneath crew management by way of 2024.
