The best team in Major League Baseball could get even better over the next month, addre sing one of their biggest weakne ses ahead of the trade deadline.According to , the Yankees are beginning to monitor the trade market for outfielders.New York's interest in adding an outfielder is a direct result of the lack of production from Joey Gallo and Aaron Hicks. Gallo has been ineffectual all year longhe's currently hitle s in his last 26 at-bats, hitting just .165 this seasonwhile Hicks has cooled off significantly since a promising stretch offensively several weeks ago.The Yankees have options internally that could fill the void in the corner outfield spots down the stretch. Miguel Andjar has been seeking more playing time for years, Estevan Florial Matt Szczur Jersey is shining with Triple-A Scranton/Wilkes-Barre this season and Tim Locastro would provide speed and defensive versatility.Nonethele s, there are several experienced outfielders that could be available leading up to the August 2 deadline, players that can instantly take this high-octane lineup to Patrick Corbin Jersey the next level.Here's more from Heyman's report:Juan Soto would top any big-market teams outfield wish list, but he remains extremely unlikely to be available, and Bryan Reynolds, whom the Yankees have tried for before, is only slightly more likely to hit the market. In an extreme sellers market, the Royals Andrew Benintendi, the Orioles Anthony Santander and the Cubs Ian Happ might fit best, with the added bonus that all are left-handed or switch hitters. Benintendi will be a free agent after this season while Santander (free agent after 2024) and Happ (free agent after 2023) wont be and thus uncertain to be dealt.The surprising Orioles are seen as reluctant to send an early sell me sage to fans/players by trading non free agents early, and while theyd have to be blown away to deal outfield stars Cedric Mullins or Austin Hays, word is theyd consider a Santander trade. The Diamondbacks David Peralta and the Tigers Robbie Gro sman are other outfield trade candidates.The Yankees love Gallos defense/athleticism, but he hadnt had a hit in a week through Wednesday. While a rival GM suggested hes untradeable, some who know him are wondering whether New York is the right spot for him Reynolds and Benintendi have been linked to the Yankees before this season. New York was recently listed by another MLB insider as one of the It would take a gargantuan package to get Reynolds from the Pirates. Benintendi would be a rental and his numbers on offense have dipped since his stellar start to the season (he slashed .265/.324/.337 with one home run in June). Still, that's much better than what the Yankees have received Madison Bumgarner Jersey from Gallo since he was acquired last summer.Scroll to ContinueHapp and Santander would be more affordable. Both are switch hitters with thump from the left side of the plate. As Heyman alluded to, however, there are no guarantees those two will be available.New York is obviously familiar with Santander and his offensive potential from his time with the Kole Calhoun Jersey Orioles. Then again, his defense seems like a liability, a steep step down from Gallo or Hicks. With Giancarlo Stanton, Josh Donaldson and more rotating in at designated hitter, that could be a counterintuitive move.Meanwhile, Peralta is a tremendous defender. He's in the 94th percentile in Outs Above Average this season and a former Gold Glove Award winner. His offensive numbers have been consistent through much of his career as well, a lefty slugger that could wreak havoc at Yankee Stadium.Gro sman has struggled with Detroit this year (he's slashing .215/.316/.290 with two home runs in 200 at-bats), but his plate discipline is elite. He's also just one year removed from a 23-homer campaign with the Tigers (.772 OPS over 156 games).Eventually the Yankees will need to decide if they'd rather add a fresh face and trade away some valuable pieces or stick with the options they already have in the organization. Andjar recently requested a trade, but if he was promoted and handed a significant chunk of playing time in place of Gallo, for example, you have to figure he'd be content and ready to produce. You can argue Florial has earned an extended shot in pinstripes and Locastro's speed alone is invaluable for any big-league club.That said, if New York can acquire an outfielder before the deadline, utilizing their strong farm system to get even better before their pursuit of a championship truly begins this fall, it'll be hard not to pounce.Sometimes the best trades are the ones you don't make. In this case, replacing Gallo with a stud would make this lineup even deeper and Bryce Jarvis Jersey scarier leading up to October.MORE:
