After a slow start to the offseason, the New York Yankees have made their fair share of moves. This was highlighted most recently by the acquisition of Jameson Taillon from the Pittsburgh Pirates. There’s a lot to like about the 29-year-old righty.
Taillon, who is good friends with Gerrit Cole from their days together in Pittsburgh, is coming off his second Tommy John surgery that forced him to miss most of the 2019 season and all of the 2020 season.
Taillon’s injury history is concerning, but he’s looked good in his brief MLB career.
