It is no secret in the MLB that the New York Yankees want Juan Soto, but in the Bronx they must prepare in case the Dominican’s arrival does not materialize.
The New Yorkers have been looking for a left fielder for a long time and in the 2023 season in the Major Leagues they tried several formulas without success.
If they can’t close the deal for Soto, they will still have some quality options on the free agent market that the Yankees front office led by Brian Cashman can evaluate.
Cuban Gurriel is an interesting option, although he is not the left-handed hitter they need to balance the lineup. He has some elements in his favor, such as the knowledge of the Eastern Division that comes from the five years he played for the Blue Jays. He would arrive at a great time, since the move to Arizona was beneficial. Not only does it seem to have given him maturity (he achieved personal bests with 24 home runs and 25 doubles and also drove in 82 runs), he also went to his first All-Star Game and played in the World Series. He proved that he can answer the challenge in the playoffs.
