It seems as if for however good of a bullpen the New York Yankees have, it can always get better. While a back-end of Britton, Ottavino, and Aroldis Chapman is still amongst the best in baseball, why not bolster it further. Tommy Kahnle officially hit FA a couple of weeks back, after declining an option to the minors proposed by New York.
The jury is still out on whether the team decides to bring him back on a multi-year deal for cheaper, but as of now, he’s fielding interest. While losing Kahnle to his injury hurt the team — as prior to him getting hurt, he was one of the most dominant out of the arsenal of arms — it allowed guys like Jonathan Loaisiga and Mike King to see some innings.
