Yankees Flaws Make Tarik Skubal the Ultimate Deadline Swing

The Yankees struck out at an alarming rate, but Evan argues that their problems go far beyond missed swings. Will Warren struggled against the bottom of Tampa Bay’s lineup, Cody Bellinger made another costly mistake, and the uncertainty surrounding Aaron Judge has left the offense without an obvious solution. Instead of trying to patch every weakness, Evan believes the Yankees should make one aggressive move and trade for Tarik Skubal. Pairing him with Gerrit Cole and Max Fried could give New York the dominant rotation it needs to survive a flawed American League and make a serious championship run.
