If the price is right, the Yankees will benefit from the NL home run leader

ESPN’s Jerry Crasnick is reporting that the New York Yankees may not be finished yet and are talking to the reigning National League home run leader, Chris Carter.

In 160 games a year ago, Carter slashed .222/.321/.499, maintained a .821 OPS and was tied with Nolan Arenado for the most home runs (41) in the National League.

Since 2013, Carter has the sixth-most home runs (131) in major league baseball behind Mike Trout, David Ortiz, Edwin Encarnacion, Nelson Cruz and Chris Davis.
