Yankees want to sign this superstar pitcher ‘soon’ to help their rotation

The New York Yankees still have time to make another significant move.

New York has been one of baseball’s most active clubs. The Yankees seem to be the subject of a new rumor every week, and it appears that they are doing all possible to enhance the team.

The Yankees have money to spend and have been linked to every big-name free-agent starting pitcher as well as every pitcher who could be moved. From Jordan Montgomery to Dylan Cease, every available pitcher has been discussed as a possible match for New York.

Cease appears to be one of New York’s primary objectives at this stage. It’s uncertain whether the Yankees may reach an agreement with the Chicago White Sox, but according to Randy Miller of NJ.com, they want to do it “soon.” “Will (Brian Cashman) make (Spencer Jones) and No. 1 pitching prospect Chase Hampton the centerpiece of a Cease trade that keeps him away from the Orioles, who would then be everyone’s favorite to win the AL East for the second time in a row?”

“The Yankees will strike soon,” Miller predicted. “They want Cease, and they’d be content with (Blake Snell).” The price is the stumbling block. Will Cashman spend whatever it takes in terms of money or prospects to obtain one of them before they both go elsewhere?”

Cease has been the subject of trade speculations throughout the summer, and it appears like the White Sox are on the verge of a total rebuild. The 28-year-old has great trade value, and the White Sox will demand a big price for him. He’s worth it, and New York should pay whatever it takes to get him. To be a true World Series contender, New York needs one more pitcher, and Cease could be that guy.
