New York Yankees general manager Brian Cashman said the team "knocked on all doors" but had trouble finding fair offers with potential partners ahead of Wednesday's trade deadline.
Speaking to reporters after the deadline passed, Cashman explained why the Yankees failed to come away with a starter despite being previously linked to players like Tanner Roark, Trevor Bauer, Madison Bumgarner, Noah Syndergaard and Marcus Stroman, among others.
"My job is constantly trying to improve this club, and we've been doing it for a long time. We didn't get close to anything," Cashman said, per ESPN.
