Since half of the New York Yankees Typical infielders this season have become unrestricted free agents, the Yankees front office will likely need to be active in acquiring infielders this offseason.

New York has already been linked to top infielders like Willy Adamès, Alex Bregman, Christian WalkerAnd Pete Alonso.

And while they might be in play for these free agents, the Yankees might be more inclined to bolster their infield via trade; especially because it would help them conserve the money allocated to them for the prosecution of Juan Soto.

A trade opens up the possibility of many more players wearing pinstripes next season. And according to a November 4 article by Bob Nightengale of USA Todayan All-Star infielder from one of the National League’s best teams may have just hit the trading block

“If anyone needs a slugger like Nick Castellanos, or some outfield help in Brandon Marsh, or third baseman Alec Bohm, the Phillies are listening,” Nightengale wrote.

While all three of these players are compelling, Bohm is the one who makes the most sense for the Yankees. The 28-year-old finished the 2024 regular season with a .280 average, .780 OPS, 15 home runs and 97 RBIs.

However, this stat line doesn’t tell the whole story, as Bohm was one of the best offensive infielders in baseball during the All-Star break (earning him his first All-Star appearance), but experienced great difficulties in the second half.

That said, advanced measurements show that Bohm was one of the best third basemen in MLB this season, both offensively and defensively.

If the Yankees could acquire Bohm without giving up too many top prospects in return, he could be the steal of the winter.
