During the season CC expressed interest in taking a front-office role with the Yankees after retirement but for now it sounds like he’s playing the role of a recruiter. Who better to start with than Cole, the top free-agent prize on the market this offseason.
Cole could be the missing piece that helps put New York over the top in 2020, but many are predicting that he’ll end up signing with the LA Angels because of his hometown roots in Orange County, California. However, the Yankees are definitely in the mix and if Hal Steinbrenner is willing to open up his checkbook and pay him whatever he wants they certainly have a shot according to CC.
