Yankees Potential Free Agent Target: Thyago Vieira

Next season, they’ll have both Aroldis Chapman and Zack Britton under contract for deals in excess of $10 million. It was just under three years ago that they signed Adam Ottavino for three years and $27 million. The organization very much likes to assemble deep bullpens.
However, one could also argue that the Yankees’ insistence on doing so hurt them last year. Due to their other insistence of rigorously sticking under the completive balance tax, they might have missed out on adding talent for last year’s team, with so much money owed to Chapman and Britton.
