Shortstop Andrelton simmons It would no longer be in the New York Yankees’ plans for the 2022 MLB season because the team has followed a figure like Carlos Correa with more interest since before the work stoppage, according to the opinion of journalist Brendan Kuty of nj.com.
For the communicator, a negotiation with Simmons would not make sense. “He’s a player who only plays at shortstop,” says Kuty before analyzing that “the Yankees should use their money to reinforce pitching, since they have quality players who can perform in other positions in the infield.”

The New York Yankees were about to close an agreement with Carlos Correa before the stoppage of the MLB, according to said the director of multimedia content of ESPN, Randy Wilkins.
The news was made known by Wilkins on his personal Twitter account when responding to a user who criticized the lack of movement by the Yankees in free agency.
“They were very close friend, I am sure that when it is allowed to negotiate, New York will resume the talks,” Wilkins wrote in his account.
They were close to a deal around the lockout. They just ran out of time. They’re going to make moves. It’s going to be fine.

Former Yankees player Steve Sax praised the late franchise owner George Steinbrenner’s performance in the years he played for the team.
“I spent three years with the Yankees and I heard rumors that he was crazy and was in the clubhouse all the time imposing discipline. All I can say is that we were unhappy with the conditions of the locker room and once we returned from a tour, the atmosphere changed, “he said in an interview on MLB Network Radio.
Former Yankees pitcher, Orlando “Duque” Hernández, asked the players’ association to develop a proposal for Cuba to have MLB players in the World Baseball Classic.
“Major League Baseball and the players’ association must take action on this matter. It is unfair that Cuba is the one that decides which players go and which ones don’t. They must play with an independent team, as they have the right to do so. ” Hernandez said.
