New York Yankees “rekindled conversations” with free agent outfielder

The New York Yankees have been busy in the last couple of weeks, mostly addressing their pitching needs. They have brough starters Corey Kluber, via free agency, and Jameson Taillon, via trade.

However, there are still a couple of areas that the Yankees need to improve to increase their already high chances of making a deep playoff run. Namely, they need to add one or two relievers and a left-handed bat.

For years, the New York Yankees have had that left-handed bat in Brett Gardner. Late in his career, he morphed into a power threat from the left side of the plate, while remaining effective on the basepaths and on the field.
