Yankees Reportedly Interested in Orioles' Mychal Givens in Potential Offseason Trade

Nobody would argue that the Yankees biggest need isn't their bullpen, but that doesn't mean Brian Cashman won't be looking to add to the stash of relievers already on the roster.

And one target the Yankees could have in mind is Mychal Givens, who was a linked to New York at the trade deadline, though nothing materialized.

Joel Sherman reports that there's a real possibility the Yankees and Orioles re-engage in trade talks this offseason.

The Yankees' most glaring need is starting pitching, but that won't prevent them from also pursuing Givens.

Givens has spent the first five seasons of his career in Baltimore. In 2019 he made 58 appearances, recording a 4.57 ERA with 11 saves in 63 innings of work. He boasts an impressive 3.40 career ERA, and could serve as a viable middle relief option for the Yankees.

There have already been rumblings that the Yankees will fish for not one, but two big fish this summer to bolster their rotation and hopefully bring a World Series ring title to the Bronx for the first time since 2009.

The Yankees aren't to be underestimated in free agency and are notoriously consistent in getting players that they want, so expect them to be fully in play for one if not both of Stephen Strasburg and Gerrit Cole.
