Yankees consider trading young star for pitcher Cease
The New York Yankees are considering a trade to replace pitcher Gerrit Cole, who will miss the season due to Tommy John surgery. They are eyeing San Diego Padres pitcher Dylan Cease, who has a strong track record. Cease, 29, is under contract for $13.75 million in 2025. However, acquiring him may require the Yankees to part with a key young player, such as catcher Austin Wells, shortstop Anthony Volpe, or outfielder Jasson Domínguez. The Yankees face a tough decision. Trading one of their promising stars could impact their future, while Cease offers immediate help in their pursuit of a championship.
