After securing star lefty Max Fried on a mammoth $218 million deal, they turned their attention to the trade market to start solving two areas of need: relief pitching and offense.<\/p>\n<p>First, they swung a deal for star closer Devin Williams, arguably the best in the sport, and then traded for center fielder Cody Bellinger. To get the two players, they had to send Nestor Cortes, Caleb Durbin, and Cody Poteet packing.<\/p>\n<figure><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/empiresportsmedia.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/12\/MLB-New-York-Yankees-at-Chicago-Cubs-cody-bellinger-24177538.jpg?resize=539,359\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 4200px) 100vw, 4200px\" srcset=\"https:\/\/empiresportsmedia.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/12\/MLB-New-York-Yankees-at-Chicago-Cubs-cody-bellinger-24177538.jpg?resize=384,256 384w, https:\/\/empiresportsmedia.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/12\/MLB-New-York-Yankees-at-Chicago-Cubs-cody-bellinger-24177538.jpg?resize=539,359 539w, https:\/\/empiresportsmedia.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/12\/MLB-New-York-Yankees-at-Chicago-Cubs-cody-bellinger-24177538.jpg?resize=184,123 184w, https:\/\/empiresportsmedia.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/12\/MLB-New-York-Yankees-at-Chicago-Cubs-cody-bellinger-24177538.jpg?resize=262,175 262w, https:\/\/empiresportsmedia.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/12\/MLB-New-York-Yankees-at-Chicago-Cubs-cody-bellinger-24177538.jpg?resize=600,400 600w\" alt=\"Yankees catcher could be used as trade piece in upcoming weeks\" width=\"4200\" height=\"2800\" \/><figcaption>Credit: Kamil Krzaczynski-Imagn Images<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<p>The Yankees have more moves to make, though. With Bellinger slated to play center field, they still need a first baseman and probably a second baseman, too, among other things. And yes, they could deal some prospects (so far, they have held onto their top guys), but some MLB pieces could be flipped, too.<\/p>\n<p>Enter Jose Trevino. Austin Wells won the Yankees starting catcher position with a phenomenal 2024, both offensively and defensively. This could make Trevino expendable, and since he does have value because of his extraordinary defense behind the plate (he is a former Gold and Platinum Glove award winner), there is a chance he will be moved, according to a recent report.<\/p>\n<figure><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/empiresportsmedia.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/03\/MLB-Spring-Training-Atlanta-Braves-at-New-York-Yankees-22745328.jpg?resize=539,382\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 4364px) 100vw, 4364px\" srcset=\"https:\/\/empiresportsmedia.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/03\/MLB-Spring-Training-Atlanta-Braves-at-New-York-Yankees-22745328.jpg?resize=384,272 384w, https:\/\/empiresportsmedia.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/03\/MLB-Spring-Training-Atlanta-Braves-at-New-York-Yankees-22745328.jpg?resize=539,382 539w, https:\/\/empiresportsmedia.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/03\/MLB-Spring-Training-Atlanta-Braves-at-New-York-Yankees-22745328.jpg?resize=184,130 184w, https:\/\/empiresportsmedia.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/03\/MLB-Spring-Training-Atlanta-Braves-at-New-York-Yankees-22745328.jpg?resize=262,186 262w, https:\/\/empiresportsmedia.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/03\/MLB-Spring-Training-Atlanta-Braves-at-New-York-Yankees-22745328.jpg?resize=600,425 600w\" alt=\"Yankees catcher could be used as trade piece in upcoming weeks\" width=\"4364\" height=\"3094\" \/><figcaption>Credit: Kim Klement Neitzel-USA TODAY Sports<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<h2><strong>The Yankees could potentially trade Trevino<\/strong><\/h2>\n<p>\u201cJose Trevino is another potential trade candidate for the Yankees this offseason, per sources.

That, combined with his 9.8 Framing Runs, 9 DRS and 1.6 fWAR, make him a viable starter and valuable backup.<\/p>\n<p>The Yankees would probably be thrilled if he stays as a \u20181B\u2019 option to Wells\u2019 \u20181A\u2019, but could get a nice piece if traded.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The New York Yankees have been wheeling a dealing in the last few days.
