Yankees potential trade target: Ian Happ

At this point of July, the Yankees’ needs at the trade deadline have been pretty clear for quite a while now. While the Yankees arguably have the best offense in the league — their 121 OPS+ and 5.34 runs/game are both tops in the league — the bottom of the order has nonetheless been soft, with the team getting fairly little production out of Joey Gallo, Isiah Kiner-Falefa, and Josh Donaldson. They’ve already added Royals outfielder Andrew Benintendi earlier this week, but he’s not really a regular option in center field, where the Yankees have been playing Aaron Judge all season.
