The New York Yankees are making a serious push to upgrade their infield, with Nolan Arenado emerging as their top target to take over at third base. With Oswald Peraza struggling offensively and Oswaldo Cabrera showing limitations against left-handed pitching, the Yankees are eager to add a proven star to their lineup.
Arenado, a ten-time Gold Glove winner, has been a cornerstone for the St. Louis Cardinals, but recent reports suggest he may be open to waiving his full no-trade clause for a move to the Bronx. With three years remaining on his contract, the Yankees see him as a long-term solution at third base, bringing elite defense and consistent power to the lineup.
General Manager Brian Cashman has been actively searching for reinforcements, and acquiring Arenado would be a blockbuster move for a team looking to reclaim championship form. The trade discussions are ongoing, and while no deal is finalized, the Yankees’ interest in Arenado signals their commitment to strengthening the roster before Opening Day.
With Peraza’s future uncertain and the Yankees still needing a reliable right-handed bat, all eyes are on whether Cashman can pull off a deal to bring Arenado to New York. If successful, the Yankees would solidify their infield with one of the best third basemen in the game.
