Yankees remain engaged in free agent market — including with Pete Alonso
NY Post
Even after a flurry of activity over the past week, the Yankees roster has plenty of question marks, perhaps the biggest at first base — if Cody Bellinger doesn’t end up there — and second base — if Jazz Chisholm Jr. doesn’t get shifted from third.
General manager Brian Cashman said Wednesday that he remains engaged with the agents of most “above average” options available at the spots, as well as in the outfield.
And he said the list includes Pete Alonso.
Alonso is among the biggest free agents left and the Yankees are also engaged with Christian Walker, Carlos Santana and Paul Goldschmidt, according to sources.
Santana and Goldschmidt wouldn’t cost as much, which may be to the Yankees’ liking, given the price tags of Bellinger and lefty Max Fried.
Signing any of them would likely put Bellinger in center, with Aaron Judge moving back to right field and perhaps Jasson Dominguez in left, where he struggled in September.
