The Yankees should DH Didi Gregorius this season

The star isn’t expected to return to the infield until later in the season, but he could DH all year if the Yankees want him to.

The latest Sonny Gray trade rumors

By Tyler Norton January 20

29 comments / new

Reds are trying to extend Sonny Gray now, before deal is finalized. Reds know it’s hard to get pitchers to come to Great America but believe Gray, with close connection to new pitching coach Derek Johnson from Vanderbilt, will be receptive. @Ken_Rosenthal mentioned possibility.
— Jon Heyman (@JonHeyman) January 20, 2019

The Yankees and Reds seemed to have agreed to a Sonny Gray trade last night, but things went quiet immediately after. Apparently that's because Cincinnati is trying to extend the right-hander. Ken Rosenthal floated the idea earlier today, with Jon Heyman doubling down on it. Let's hope this wraps up soon. It's hard to believe how long this is dragging out.

Wow indeed, Gleyber. By adding Adam Ottavino, the Yankees have a claim at one of the best bullpens in baseball history. It's a ridiculous collection of arms.
