Yankees Player Targets
Yankees Potential Trade Target: Max Kepler
The Yankees are still looking for someone to slot into their third outfield spot.
Yankees Potential Free Agent Target: Will Smith
A bad month almost ruined the left-hander’s 2022, but he righted the ship and finished strong.
Yankees Potential Free Agent Target: Michael Conforto
After missing a year due to injury, Conforto is back for 2022. Should the Yankees look into bringing him in?
Yankees Potential Free Agent Target: Justin Turner
Don’t look now, but the market dynamics could theoretically (and potentially) pair Turner with the Yankees
Yankees Potential Trade Target: Trevor Rogers
Can the Yankees fix the janky lefty?
Yankees Potential Trade Target: Daulton Varsho
His batted ball profile would play very well 81 games a year in the Bronx.
Yankees Potential Trade Target: Alek Thomas
The young Arizona outfielder is a risky but intriguing option for the Yankees’ left field vacancy.
Yankees Potential Free Agent Target: Noah Syndergaard
The veteran righty could be a backup option for the Yankees.
Yankees Potential Free Agent Target: Nathan Eovaldi
So far, the Yankees winter has consisted of re-signing their own free agents and bringing back old friends. Might another reunion be in store?
Yankees Potential Trade Target: Max Fried
If the defending NL East champs are dangling their ace, he becomes the prize of the offseason trade market.
Yankees Potential Trade Target: Fernando Tatis Jr.
Does Brian Cashman have a super trick up his sleeve?
Yankees Potential Free Agent Target: Jurickson Profar
The veteran switch-hitter had a solid year entering free agency, but is he a good fit with the Yankees?
Yankees Potential Free Agent Target: Christian Vázquez
The former Red Sox and Astros catcher is a dependable option, but probably not a match with the Bombers.
Yankees Potential Free Agent Target: Evan Longoria
Longoria is past his prime, but recent performance suggests he can still be a good offensive player.
Yankees Potential Free Agent Target: Chad Green
After Tommy John surgery knocked him out of for most of 2022, should the Yankees consider bringing back Chad Green with an eye on the future?
Yankees Potential Free Agent Target: Matt Carpenter
A reunion between Matt Carpenter and the Yankees could make a lot of sense.
Yankees Potential Free Agent Target: Kenley Jansen
Do the Yankees need a new closer?
Yankees Potential Free Agent Target: Andrew Benintendi
All the reasons why the Yankees traded for Benintendi in July make him an attractive free agent in December.
Yankees Potential Free Agent Target: AJ Pollock
Why not a cheap outfield fallback option in case everything else goes wrong?
Yankees Potential Free Agent Target: Trey Mancini
Is there a world where the former division rival makes sense in the Bronx?
Yankees Potential Trade Target: David Bednar
David Bednar would be a game-changer for the Yankees bullpen.
Yankees Potential Free Agent Target: Jameson Taillon
Should the Yankees pursue a reunion with Taillon for 2023 and beyond?
Yankees Potential Free Agent Target: Tommy Kahnle
Tommy Kahnle was fun to have in pinstripes the first time around.
Yankees Potential Free Agent Target: Ross Stripling
Stripling was one of the AL’s best starting pitchers in the final four months of the season.
Yankees Potential Free Agent Target: Michael Brantley
The veteran outfielder would bring excellent contact skills and modest power to the Yankees’ lineup.
Yankees Potential Free Agent Target: Chris Bassitt
The Yankees can balance depth with upside in going after the ex-Met.
Yankees Potential Trade Target: Pablo López
The Miami starter was the subject of trade rumors at the deadline. Could New York revisit him?
Yankees Potential Free Agent Target: Willson Contreras
The All-Star catcher is coming off the best season of his career.
Yankees Potential Trade Target: Ian Happ
Could the current Cubbie lock down left field?
Yankees Potential Trade Target: Alex Lange
The righty reliever is the most desirable arm out of Detroit’s bullpen, and likely the most expensive to acquire.
Yankees Potential Free Agent Target: Brandon Nimmo
The OBP machine would look amazing at the top of the Yankees lineup.
Yankees Potential Free Agent Target: Mitch Haniger
Should the Yankees sign the oft-injured but solid vet outfielder?
