Entering this offseason, the New York Yankees certainly didn’t envision making any major changes to their bullpen.
Veteran reliever, Dellin Betances as the lone pitcher out on the free-agent market from the back-end of the Yankees’ bullpen. That makes General manager Brian Cashman job easy. He’ll likely only need to add one new arm this winter who can pitch in high leverage situations next season.
Earlier this week, Ken Rosenthal of The Athletic, reported that the Yankees were interested in trading for Oakland Athletics reliever Blake Treinen. However, Cashman will no longer need to acquire Treinen through trade.
