Yankees, Diamondbacks Consider Major Player Trades

As the MLB offseason progresses, the New York Yankees and Arizona Diamondbacks are actively seeking trades to adjust their rosters and financial commitments. The Yankees are looking to offload starting pitcher Marcus Stroman, willing to cover part of his remaining $18.5 million contract, with the San Diego Padres identified as a potential trade partner. Meanwhile, the Diamondbacks are aiming to trade Jordan Montgomery after a disappointing season. The Padres are also focusing on filling their roster gaps, particularly at catcher, first base, and outfield, as they explore options, including possibly re-signing former players. The departure of Donovan Solano has further complicated the Padres' infield situation, leaving them in search of additional depth. With spring training approaching, both teams are under pressure to finalize their rosters to remain competitive.
