Part 5/7:

If the Yankees part with Heel or Schmidt, they could improve their batting lineup but risk depleting their pitching depth. Moreover, any deal for Tucker must include assurances that he will remain with the team beyond the current season. The stakes are high, and the Yankees cannot afford to repeat past mistakes involving high-profile trades without guarantees of long-term success.

What's Next for the Yankees?

With the roster being reshaped, anticipation around who the Yankees will pursue next is mounting. Aside from Tucker, players like Christian Walker and Cody Bellinger have emerged as potential targets. A combination of these acquisitions could lead the Yankees to a much improved roster compared to last year.
