This news piece explores the possibility of outfielder Lane Thomas being traded to the New York Yankees. The article highlights Thomas's potential and why he could be a good fit for the Yankees while mentioning the financial implications and other potential trade options.
The Cleveland Guardians have already traded away one of their starters from this past season, sending second baseman Andres Gimenez to the Toronto Blue Jays. The team is also looking to trade first baseman Josh Naylor and outfielder Lane Thomas , and while Naylor is certainly the bigger of the two names, Thomas is also a very interesting piece. Well, Caleb Moody of Just Baseball has compiled a short list of the best possible fits for Thomas, and the New York Yankees are mentioned.
If Thomas can find some of his 2023 form next season, he could provide that middle-of-the-order support for Aaron Judge, with his 20+ homer, .250 AVG and .750 OPS potential to place alongside Jazz Chisholm Jr., Giancarlo Stanton and Austin Wells. While Teoscar Hernandez and Anthony Santander are definitely sexier names, New York would have to shell out wads of cash for either player, and the Yankees may not want to do that after signing Max Fried and swinging a trade for Bellinger. Thomas is set to hit free agency after next season, so the Yanks would have no financial obligation to him beyond 2025. Plus, he is slated to earn just $7.9 million next year
