The New York Yankees have made it clear that all they want for Christmas is pitching—more specifically, Patrick Corbin.
After stacking up great numbers in 2018, Corbin is the top free agent pitcher on the market this offseason. The 29-year-old southpaw finished fifth in Cy Young voting, posting an 11-7 record and a 3.15 ERA in 200 innings.
Corbin struck out a career-high 246 batters, and his 1.05 WHIP was good for fourth in the National League, behind only Max Scherzer, Jacob deGrom, and Aaron Nola.
These are just a few reasons the Yankees want Corbin on their staff.
