The New York Yankees have been active in free agency and the trade market since watching outfielder Juan Soto bolt to Queens. But one thing general manager Brian Cashman hasn’t been able to do is trade starting pitcher Marcus Stroman and his 2025 salary to another team.<\/p>\n

Could the Atlanta Braves be a realistic landing spot for the veteran hurler?\u00a0Bleacher Report’s Tim Kelly thinks<\/a>\u00a0the Bombers and Atlanta syncing up for a trade would be a win for both sides.<\/p>\n

SOUTH WILLIAMSPORT, PENNSYLVANIA – AUGUST 18: Marcus Stroman #0 of the New York Yankees pitches during the second inning against the Detroit Tigers at Bowman Field on August 18, 2024 in South Williamsport, Pennsylvania.<\/span>\u00a0Joe Sargent\/Getty Images<\/span><\/figcaption><\/figure>\n

“The starting rotation in Atlanta has an extremely high upside led by reigning NL Cy Young Award winner Chris Sale,” Kelly wrote. “But between Sale, Reynaldo L\u00f3pez and Spencer Strider\u2014who won’t be ready for Opening Day as he returns from an internal brace procedure on his right elbow\u2014it’s clear this isn’t going to be a team that gets through the regular season with five or six starters.<\/p>\n

“Stroman certainly isn’t an ironman, either, but there’s a high ceiling with the two-time All-Star. There’s evidence that if you get him away from Yankee Stadium, he will rebound, as he had a 3.09 road ERA last season, as opposed to 5.31 at home.”<\/p>\n

Although the right-hander tossed 154 2\/3 innings and posted a 4.31 ERA for the Yankees in the regular season, he didn’t appear at all during New York’s run to the World Series.<\/p>\n

Kelly noted that while it’d be great for the Yankees to get a fringe\u00a0MLB<\/a>\u00a0player or a lower-level minor leaguer with upside, that’s not the main goal. The most important thing for Cashman would be shedding Stroman’s salary.<\/p>\n

He’s entering the second season of a two-year, $37 million contract that\u00a0will pay him $18 million in 2025<\/a>.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
