The Official New York Yankees Thread


MLB rumors: Yankees seeking outfield upgrade amid struggles of Joey Gallo and Aaron Hicks

"In an extreme sellers' market, the Royals' Andrew Benintendi, the Orioles' Anthony Santander and the Cubs' Ian Happ might fit best, with the added bonus that all are left-handed or switch hitters. Benintendi will be a free agent after this season while Santander (free agent after 2024) and Happ (free agent after 2023) won't be and thus uncertain to be dealt."
 
Michael King has been nasty this year. Saw him hit 98 with his Sinker about a week ago.

Now 100 with his 4 Seamer.

“Albert Abreu was talking about it, because in 2018 when I was in High-A with him, I was like 89 to 92 [mph],” King said. “He’s like, ‘What the hell?’ Throwing out of the bullpen, it’s easy to just max-effort it. I’ve seen my velo steadily tick up a little bit, and I think when you train fast, you start to actually do fast things. Because I’m trying to throw as hard as I can in the bullpen, I feel like my velo continues to tick up a little bit.”

Triple-digits? Yanks reliever shocked himself
