Isaac Paredes offers the Yankees walks and fewer strikeouts, but a possible trade still needs an honest look at his defense and cost.
Empire Sports Media's Alexander Wilson argues that the New York Yankees should consider acquiring third baseman Isaac Paredes from the Houston Astros. Wilson highlights Paredes' low strikeout rate and strong on-base skills, noting he struck out only 88 times in 659 plate appearances while hitting 25 home runs.
The Houston Astros hold a $13.35 million club option on Paredes, which could become mutual based on MVP voting. Wilson suggests the Yankees evaluate the trade costs and defensive fit, noting Ryan McMahon's underwhelming offensive numbers at third base, while advising against overpaying if Houston sets an excessive asking price.
