NEW YORK -- The Yankees, who suffered through a brutal season at the plate in 2022, appear on the verge of a blockbuster trade that could greatly improve their chances of getting back to the World Series next season.
According to various reports, they are closing in on a trade with the San Diego Padres that would send superstar outfield Juan Soto to the Bronx.
Opposing fanbases may roll their eyes when Yankees fans complain about their championship drought dating back to 2009. But around here, that's an eternity. And now, with the possibility of Soto soon being in pinstripes, the mood among the masses has improved.
