Gleyber Torres Signs With Detroit Tigers

The New York Yankees have officially lost Gleyber Torres, who signed a one-year, $15 million deal with the Detroit Tigers, further thinning their lineup following the departure of Juan Soto to the Mets. Torres, a former All-Star, struggled in recent seasons but showed flashes of his early potential, notably in the 2019 postseason. The Yankees now face the challenge of filling the second base vacancy left by Torres, with Jazz Chisholm Jr. considered a potential candidate. They are also exploring trade options, including a possible blockbuster deal for Tigers' infielder Jace Jung, as they seek to bolster their infield amid concerns about their ability to compete. The Tigers, meanwhile, hope Torres can regain his form and provide a boost to their middle infield. This offseason's moves have left the Yankees with critical decisions to make as they aim to remain contenders in the American League East.
