Yankees could trade 30-home-run, 90-RBI slugger this offseason

The New York Yankees could make a surprising move this offseason by trading one of their most productive hitters. Luis García Jr. finished the 2026 MLB season with 30 home runs and 91 RBI while hitting .291 with an .876 OPS. His offensive production may actually make him a valuable trade chip as New York looks to reshape its roster, and by trading a player coming off a breakout season, they could get a better return.
