Even before officially becoming a free agent, the Yankees made their interest in Correa very clear. The 27-time World Series champions need a high-quality shortstop, and they don’t come much better than the 27-year-old at the moment.
However, Corey Seager’s free agency also interests the Yankees. Aged the same as Correa, the Los Angeles Dodgers star is a left-handed hitter, which could solve another crucial issue they have in their hitting depth.
