One person who believes the Yankees should pull the trigger on such a deal is Cameron Maybin, who played for the team in 2019 and had one of his most productive seasons at the plate that year. According to Maybin, it could be the best move for them to put the team over the top.

The Yankees are keenly interested in bringing back the free agent outfielder, although multiple roadblocks await.

The Yankees agreed to one-year contracts with infielder/outfielder Oswaldo Cabrera and right-hander Clarke Schmidt on Friday, avoiding arbitration, while non-tendering five pitchers ahead of a late-afternoon deadline.
