Yankees potential trade target: Marcus Stroman

The Yankees have five starting pitchers already, but should they seek to upgrade their rotation, Marcus Stroman is one of the best available options on the market this summer. The 28-year-old right-hander might not come cheap, but he’s under control through the 2020 season and would undoubtedly bolster the Yankee rotation for the next year and a half.

Stroman isn’t a typical starter, per se. Technically, Statcast says he throws six different pitches, but he only throws three of them with any regularity -- his sinker, slider, and cutter. However, he does mix in changeups, curveballs, and four seamers from time-to-time.
