After plenty of discussions during the season about whether the Yankees would find a suitor for Aaron Hicks, they decided to cut ties with the struggling outfielder, bringing in Greg Allen to replace him. This comes as a surprise considering he posted a 111 wRC+ in the month of May, but with the Yankees looking to get new blood on the roster and fans constantly booing the 33-year-old switch hitter, the writing was on the wall. The Yankees felt as if they could get better production on the defensive and offensive end from Greg Allen, but now the Yankees are on the hook for the remaining $30 million.
