The New York Yankees have been keeping tabs on third basemen around the league since Oswaldo Cabrera suffered a season-ending injury in May. According to Talkin’ Yanks on X, Aaron Boone is moving Jazz Chisholm Jr. back to second base, effective immediately. With that, the Yankees have reportedly reached out to the Pittsburgh Pirates about the availability of their Gold Glove third baseman Ke’Bryan Hayes, according to Jon Heyman of the New York Post.

Hayes was a Gold Glove winner in 2023 and has shown flashes of offensive potential during his time in Pittsburgh. Hayes’ best offensive season also came in 2023, smacking 15 home runs and hitting .271 with 31 doubles.
Hayes’ bat has regressed over the last two seasons, and he was unable to win his second consecutive Gold Glove last season. Although he has seen a recent decline in his numbers, the Yankees have kept him on their radar as he is one of the better defensive options at the position.
The Pirates currently sit at the bottom of the National League Central, and their season is continuing to spiral, likely leading them to sell at the deadline to build for the future.
Hayes is signed through 2029, and with the recent uncertainty at the position, the Yankees will be well served to explore all their possibilities before committing long-term.
The Yankees are within striking distance of the Toronto Blue Jays as the All-Star break inches closer, and after having a couple of months to evaluate possible options, are likely to make a move for a third baseman at the deadline.
