According to Bob Nightengale of USA Today, Marcus Stroman drew a a lot of interest in the offseason, but he could be more likely to be traded this summer despite his current injury. Why is that? We explain here.

A New York Yankees trade idea has them acquiring a star shortstop from the Toronto Blue Jays after dealing with significant infield injuries.

With his left knee still barking, Stroman is unlikely to reach the 140-inning mark that would have automatically locked in his $18 million player option for 2026. That looming salary scared teams off over the winter when the Yankees explored potential trade scenarios last winter.
