Around the Empire: Yankees news - 8/25/23

New York Post | Mike Vaccaro: The most fascinating free agent case of all time took on a new wrinkle on Wednesday, with the news that Shohei Ohtani has torn his UCL. While no plans for surgery have been announced at time of writing, the risk profile of inking the unicorn in the offseason changed considerably. Despite that, he’ll be the premier free agent of this winter’s class, and the Yankees shouldn’t be shied away from the arm issues when players like Bryce Harper and Ohtani himself have shown the ability to be elite hitters even post-UCL injury.
