Report: Paul Skenes' teammate Ke'Bryan Hayes emerges as surprise Yankees option if Eugenio Suarez trade fails
Report: Paul Skenes' teammate Ke'Bryan Hayes emerges as surprise Yankees option if Eugenio Suarez trade fails (Image via Getty) Ke'Bryan Hayes, third baseman for the Pittsburgh Pirates and teammate of star pitcher Paul Skenes, is suddenly in the spotlight. With the MLB trade deadline set for July 30, 2025, the New York Yankees are looking for help at third base. Their top choice is Eugenio Suarez from the Arizona Diamondbacks. But things aren't certain, and now Hayes has become a strong backup plan. A trusted MLB insider has shared why Hayes could soon land in New York if the Yankees can't strike a deal with Arizona. Paul Skenes' teammate Ke'Bryan Hayes could fill Yankees defensive needs at third base The New York Yankees are running tight. Second in the AL East, they have to have assistance if they hope to claim the division. Fans are eager to see which player the team might add as the MLB trade deadline approaches on July 30, 2025. Third baseman Eugenio Suarez for the Arizona Diamondbacks is one name drawing notice. Ke'Bryan Hayes, third baseman for the Pittsburgh Pirates, however, has emerged as a backup option now. MLB insider Joel Sherman shared this news on Friday, July 18, during his show 'The Show' on YES Network. He said the Yankees want Suarez, but they also like Hayes in case the deal doesn't happen. 'I think they should do what they can to try to get Eugenio Suarez,' Sherman said. by Taboola by Taboola Sponsored Links Sponsored Links Promoted Links Promoted Links You May Like An engineer reveals: One simple trick to get internet without a subscription Techno Mag Learn More Undo 'But Ke'Bryan Hayes fits them so well. He's one of the best defensive third basemen. You put him in New York and he gets even better.' Ke'Bryan Hayes could be key for Yankees' third base needs Joel Sherman explained why Ke'Bryan Hayes is a good option. He said Hayes reminds him of former Yankee Scott Brosius, known for his defence. Hayes plays great defence and can hit well enough to help the team. 'If Hayes moved out of Pittsburgh,' Sherman said, 'you'd get more out of him. Just let him hit around .240 and play top-level defence. That's what the Yankees need.'

That makes Hayes easier to get if talks with the Diamondbacks don't work out. On the other hand, Eugenio Suárez is seen as a better hitter. So far this season, Suárez has hit 31 home runs and has 78 RBIs, which is a lot better than Yankees current third baseman Oswald Peraza, who is strong on defence but struggling at bat. That's why the Yankees are still pushing hard to get Suárez. But if that trade doesn't happen, Hayes is a solid backup. He may not hit as much, but he's excellent on defence, and the Yankees need both right now. With just days left until the MLB trade deadline on July 30, fans will be watching closely to see who ends up wearing pinstripes in the Bronx.

'Didn't have anything left in the tank': Former Winnipeg Jets captain Blake Wheeler retires from NHL
Source: Getty Images Blake Wheeler, the longtime face of the Winnipeg Jets franchise, officially announced his retirement from professional hockey after 16 NHL seasons. Speaking on Wednesday's edition of Jets at Noon , the 38-year-old forward shared that he had already made peace with the decision following a serious injury during the 2023–24 season. Wheeler leaves the game with over 1,100 games played and nearly 1,000 career points. Blake Wheeler retires after injury-plagued final season Wheeler revealed that he knew he was 'all done' not long after the 2023–24 campaign ended. A devastating injury in February 2024, where he tore ankle ligaments and broke his fibula, sidelined him for the remainder of the regular season. Though he managed to return for one playoff game with the New York Rangers, Wheeler admitted he no longer had the physical or mental fuel to continue. 'I just didn't have anything left in the tank for it,' Wheeler said. 'I was at peace with it almost immediately.' The injury was a turning point, especially for someone who had remained relatively healthy throughout most of his career. Career highlights — a captain, an all-star, a Jets legend Drafted by the Arizona Coyotes in 2004, Wheeler debuted in the NHL with the Boston Bruins before joining the Atlanta Thrashers, who later relocated to become the Winnipeg Jets. His prime came in Winnipeg, where he served as captain from 2016 to 2022 and led the team in multiple statistical categories. by Taboola by Taboola Sponsored Links Sponsored Links Promoted Links Promoted Links You May Like American Investor Warren Buffett Recommends: 5 Books For Turning Your Life Around Blinkist: Warren Buffett's Reading List Undo Wheeler appeared in 1,172 NHL games, tallying 321 goals and 943 points. He posted back-to-back 91-point seasons in 2017–18 and 2018–19 and was selected to the NHL All-Star Game during those years. Wheeler remains the Jets' all-time leader in both assists (550) and points (897). Transitioning from hockey to family life Though the final years of his playing days came with uncertainty, including being stripped of the captaincy by former Jets coach Rick Bowness, Wheeler now looks forward to a slower, more grounded chapter. 'I'm just enjoying being a dad… and being around my family,' he said. Blake Wheeler leaves the NHL as a respected leader, top-tier playmaker, and cornerstone of the modern-day Jets. Though injuries marked the end of his career, his legacy remains intact, both on the scoresheet and in Winnipeg's hockey history.

NHL Insider assures that Sidney Crosby trade talks are happening at the highest levels
(Image via Getty Images: Sidney Crosby) In all of the 82 games played in the 2024 NHL season, there were only 38 wins, 32 losses, and 12 overtime losses for the Pittsburgh Penguins. These numbers are heavy. Heavy for the team members. For the front offices. And for their captain–Sidney Crosby. When the fans and the media are finding it cumbersome to separate Crosby from his parent team, there's one NHL Insider who thinks otherwise. Chris Johnston openly talked about the Canadian professional ice hockey center on the SDPN (The Steve Dangle Podcast) podcast–a tiny excerpt? 'The idea that even having a discussion is disrespectful to Sidney Crosby? I think that's misplaced.' Will Sidney Crosby Finish His Career In Pittsburgh? w/ Chris Johnston | SDP Having a trade discussion about Sidney Crosby is disrespectful? NHL Insider, Chris Johnston, pointed out that everyone in the NHL is having a discussion about Crosby's continuance with the Penguins or a trade to a different NHL team. Penguins are thinking. Every other NHL team that wants a stellar player like Crosby is thinking. 'People get offended–like with the whole Crosby thing. We had a full conversation about it last week. The idea that even having a discussion is disrespectful to Sidney Crosby? I think that's misplaced. ' Sidney Crosby's trade talks are the absolute elephant in the room Johnston continued, 'I can tell you, every single person in hockey is having discussions. It's the absolute elephant in the room. It would be naive to think that Kyle Dubas and the Penguins' front office haven't thought about it. And the same goes for other front offices, too. Especially for those who might want Crosby on their roster. Everyone is thinking about this–his representatives, his family, his childhood team, the teams that just suffered devastating playoff losses. It is happening at the highest levels.' The Penguins captain wants to be in Pittsburgh The NHL insider later provided a hint as to who would make the final decision. And that was none other than Sidney Crosby himself. 'We know who makes that decision and why. Because he wants to be in Pittsburgh, but the minute that changes, he'll no longer be a Penguin.' When a co-host of the SDPN podcast asked Chris Johnston why the Penguins captain hadn't addressed these buzzworthy trade rumors, the Insider said, 'That's cause he's only going to speak publicly better at once–when it happens.' FAQs How many years has Sidney Crosby been with the Pittsburgh Penguins? 20 years–from the 2005 NHL season till now. The 37-year-old ice hockey center was drafted by the Penguins as their 1st overall pick in the 2005 NHL Draft. Sidney Crosby's stats with the Pittsburgh Penguins Played in 1352 games, accumulated 625 goals, 1062 assists, and 1687 points. He is a three-time Stanley Cup Champion and a 10-time NHL All-Star Game. Is Sidney Crosby going to leave the Pittsburgh Penguins? On June 28, Pat Brisson, agent for Crosby, texted Rob Rossi, Senior Writer at The Athletic, that speculation about Crosby leaving the Penguins is 'baseless rumors.'
