New York Yankees reach out to Mets regarding Steven Matz (Report)

Error 0:

The New York Yankees are keeping their eyes open for starting pitching and that includes Mets starter Steven Matz.

The New York Yankees have reached out to the New York Mets in regards to trading for left-hander Steven Matz, according to the New York Post.

With Luis Severino undergoing Tommy John surgery, and James Paxton out until at least May, the Yankees are in need of a fifth starter.

With those two arms down, Jordan Montgomery seems to be set for the fourth spot in the rotation, leaving the fifth spot down to guys like Jonathan Loaisiga, Luis Cessa, and minor leaguers Deivi Garcia, Michael King, and Clarke Schmidt.
