NEW YORK (CBSNewYork) — The Yankees have reportedly made it clear to Gerrit Cole, the biggest fish in the free agent pond this winter, that they want him to anchor their starting pitching staff for years to come.
According to Bob Klapisch of the N.Y. Times, the Bombers have put a seven-year, $245 million offer on the table. If Cole agrees, the $35 million average annual value would surpass the record $34.4 million Zack Greinke currently receives and would eclipse David Price’s overall $217 million deal.
