Just now: Unbelievable trade, The New York Yankees have officially sign a starting pitcher from…
While the recent York Yankees have a solid pitching staff that will improve with Gerrit Cole’s return, a recent report suggests they are looking to add a starting pitcher who has taken the league by storm in 2024.
The Yankees are tearing it up. They have won 13 of their last 16, hold a 3.5-game lead in the American League East, and have the best record in baseball at 50-22. The frightening aspect of their outstanding start to the season is that they did so without ace Gerrit Cole, the 2023 AL C y Young candidate.
However, his absence has made little difference because the starting lineup, led by youngster Luis Gil, has been completely dominant. That is why, when Cole returns to action in the coming weeks, they will be faced with some difficult decisions. However, the organization is considering acquiring another starting pitcher who has had a strong season this year.
The 24 -year -old whom Chicago selected with the 11th overall pick in 2020, has been one of the few bright lights on this year’s terrible White Sox club. In 15 starts, he has a league-leading 116 strikeouts and an MLB-best 12.6 strikeouts per nine innings. Crochet’s great start is also one of the reasons the Sox may be asking for a hefty price.
