The New York Yankees are in dire need of a larger rotation at closing pitcher, especially with the temporary loss of Luke Weaver and possible total loss of Jake Cousins. Now, they’re being linked to a new name ahead of the July 31st trade deadline: St. Louis Cardinals right-hander Ryan Helsley. Helsley is predicted to garner an $81 million contract in free agency, a price St. Louis is unlikely to pay as they just don’t have the power needed to make a World Series run in the coming years. Athlon Sports’ Kristie Ackert predicted the Yankees could be a destination for the Cardinals pitcher.
