Alternate reality free agency: Seiya Suzuki

The Yankees made the decision last offseason to not make any notable changes to their outfield after getting Joey Gallo during the 2021 trade deadline. In addition, the Yankees returned their normal starters in Aaron Judge, Giancarlo Stanton, and Aaron Hicks. Judge and Stanton have been their usual selves, making their place in the outfield guaranteed. Hicks and Gallo have played adequate, if not inspiring, baseball. One of the more interesting free agents over the last offseason was Seiya Suzuki from Japan. After some early rumors about the Yankees being interested, the Cubs signed Suzuki for $85 million over five years.
