The New York Yankees have actually been hectic updating their lineup after losing the Juan Soto sweepstakes. Basic supervisor Brian Cashman still has a hole at 2nd base. Could he fill it by re-signing two-time All-Star Gleyber Torres?
Previously in the year, Torres openly specified how he wished to be a Yankee for life. Cashman stayed non-committal and a reunion in between the Bombers and the infielder appears not likely. After publishing a. 800 OPS with 25 crowning achievement and 68 RBI in 2023, Torres completed 2024 with a. 709 OPS, 15 homers and 63 RBI.

Could the Washington Nationals be a genuine landing area for the 28-year-old slugger? Simply Baseball’s Ryan Finkelstein believes Torres is predestined to land in the country’s capital.
“Being that he is among the couple of beginning 2nd basemen on the marketplace, with energy infielders Ha-Seong Kim and Jose Iglesias representing the other leading complimentary representative alternatives at the position, Torres must have a lot of interest,” Finkelstein stated. “With that stated, groups might watch out for dedicating a lot of years to Torres, in spite of the reality that he is just 28 years of ages.”
Heading into the 2024 season, Torres’ forecasted worth for a multi-year offer stood at 4 years and $68 million, per The Athletic’s Tim Britton. A below average project has actually driven his market worth down rather a bit. Spotrac is forecasting a three-year, $20 million agreement for the 2nd baseman. Finkelstein is anticipating $28 million pact over 2 years for Torres, that includes an opt-out after 2025.
