Brian Cashman’s recent comments shed light on Gleyber Torres’ reluctance to play third base after the Jazz Chisholm Jr. trade, suggesting this played a role in their unsuccessful reunion this offseason. Furthermore, third baseman Yoan Moncada has officially signed a one-year deal with the Angels to revive his career following challenges with the White Sox. In a lighter note, former Yankee Francisco Cervelli has been appointed to manage Team Italy for the 2026 World Baseball Classic, aiming to scout new talent for the tournament.
Cashman claimed that the plan with last summer's Jazz Chisholm Jr. trade was for Torres to move to third with the new acquisition taking over at second.
This public airing of the situation may indicate why neither the Yankees nor Torres pursued a reunion this offseason.
Moncada has agreed to a one-year deal with the Angels, as he attempts to rebuild his value after a difficult stint with the White Sox.
Cervelli, a former Yankees catcher, will manage Team Italy in the 2026 World Baseball Classic and is keen on recruiting new talent.
