Yankees Notes and Opinions for 11/7/25

Previous Notes: October 30, 2025 1. Yankees pick up Tim Hill‘s option This was a no-brainer, since Hill costs only $3M in 2026. The soft-tossing worm killer pitched to a 3.09 ERA (4.30 FIP) over 67 innings with a 64.8% ground ball rate. Among pitchers who tossed 60+ innings, he ranked third in baseball in […]

RHP Cade Smith – Like Cunningham, Smith (ranked 19th), needs innings due to missing time to injury. He pitched only […]

Notes: Trade analysis links: Jose Caballero/Camilo Doval (link) David Bednar/Jake Bird (link) Ryan McMahon (link) Amed Rosario (link) Austin Slater (link) SS Jackson Lovich isn’t in Scranton after all.
