MLB News: Yankees struggle and there is no way to get rid of former MVP outfielder and third baseman

The New York Yankees have been unable to find buyers for third baseman Josh Donaldson and outfielder Aaron Hicks. Former MVP veteran Donaldson played great third base in the Bronx, but his patented bat speed is a question at 37 years of age.

Donaldson’s presence and pay were one of the reasons why Carlos Correa could not work for them. The Mets might like to find a taker for James McCann and Darin Rufgood players before coming to Queens:

The Yankees wanted to bring Andrew Benintendi back, but not at the age of five. Joshua Adam Donaldson, 6-foot-1, had a rough time in his first year in New York. He hit .222 with 15 home runs and 62 RBIs in 132 games and 546 at-bats.

For his part, Aaron Michael Hicks, 33 years old and the same height as his former partner, has been on the “street of bitterness” for four years with NYY. Since 2018 he hasn’t hit .250. This year he hit .216 with eight drives and 40 RBIs in 130 games and 453 at-bats. What will be the next club for both of them or do they stay in New York?

I am a fan of the King of Sports, especially the Boston Red Sox in MLB and in general all of Mexican baseball. This profession has given me the opportunity to cover big events such as the Caribbean Series, LMB All Star, LMP (uninterrupted since 2009), important players’ signatures. I had the chance to attend the 2013 World Classic in Arizona, USA, albeit as an amateur. Apart from this beautiful sport, I love basketball, where I have also narrated games and even an NBA friendly 10 years ago, but baseball is in my veins. Graduated in Communication Sciences from the Autonomous University of Sinaloa (UAS). , from which I graduated in 2011. I was born in Mazatlán, Sinaloa and started in the world of sports journalism in 2004 in the newspaper El Sol de Mazatlán, where I was a baseball columnist and reporter at the same time. In January 2009 I arrived at El Debate as a journalist reporter and it took almost six years (in the first stage), until in November 2014 I emigrated to radio, providing my services at Línea Directa-Grupo RSN. My cycle there ended in July 2019 and a few days later, El Debate gave me another opportunity to work and opened the doors for me again. That is how I came to Al Bat, where I have been since 2019 as a web journalist.
