Way too early Free Agency talk: Should the Yankees pursue A.J. Pollock?
Amidst some recent struggles from veteran Brett Gardner, some Yankees fans might find themselves watering at the mouth of the idea of replacing Gardner with free-agent megastar Bryce Harper next season. Yes, the Yankees have prospects Clint Frazier, Billy McKinney and Estevan Florial waiting for their chance with the big-league club, not to mention the albatross and seemingly immovable contract of Jacoby Ellsbury, but since the CBA restructure a few years ago and the team's ability to get under the Luxury Tax threshold this season, the Yankees always had their eye on Harper for next offseason. However, there's another player, who doesn't get much hype playing on the West Coast, who might be an even better fit for the Yankees, and that is the reigning National League Player of the Week and April NL Player of the Month: Arizona Diamondbacks' centerfielder A.J. Pollock.
