Yankees have an option in mind in quest to find third base help
The Yankees will consider infield help, with a particular eye on third base since they'd consider moving Jazz Chisholm Jr. to second base, where he's near Gold Glove caliber.
The Yankees have liked Luis Rengifo, a change-of-scenery candidate in Anaheim. Old friend Isiah Kiner-Falefa also is on the radar.
How about ex-Yankee Charlie Hayes' underachieving son Ke'Bryan, who's struggling offensively again in Pittsburgh?
The Pirates are expected to be open-minded on anyone but Paul Skenes and club icon Andrew McCutchen. However, two vets with long deals, OF Bryan Reynolds and SP Mitch Keller, aren't seen as likely to go.
