On Monday, Brian Cashman confirmed that the Yankees were going to pursue Gerrit Cole. He also indicated that he had no directive from ownership to stay under the luxury tax threshold for 2020.
Yesterday, two MLB insiders seemed confident that Cashman would land his man. Former GM Jim Duqette said that, “I think they are the front-runner for Gerrit Cole more than any other team out there because they have the ability to spend money, and the ability to wait as long as it’s going to take for him to sign.”
