On Wednesday, the 4 p.m. ET trade deadline came and went, with the New York Yankees barely making any noise. The goal for the Bombers was to improve their starting rotation, which is 18th in the majors with a combined 4.77 ERA. However, that didn’t happen, and Yankee fans aren’t exactly pleased.
Speaking to reporters after the deadline had passed, Yankees general manager Brian Cashman stated that the front office didn’t even get near the finalization of some trades.
“We didn’t get close to anything,” Cashman said, per Megan Armstrong of Bleacher Report.
