Yankees reportedly ‘doing their homework’ on Pittsburgh starter Jameson Taillon

The New York Yankees have a good rotation. They have ace Gerrit Cole, southpaw Jordan Montgomery, youngsters Deivi Garcia and Clarke Schmidt, and fireballer Domingo German. Additionally, they recently added Corey Kluber on a one-year, $11 million contract for the 2021 season.

However, and perhaps except for Cole, every one of those starters comes with a question mark. Can Montgomery pitch closer to his 2020 FIP (3.87) than ERA (5.11)? How will German look after more than a year without pitching in the majors? Can Garcia maintain the control gains he made in 2020? Is Clarke Schmidt ready for the bigs?
