The New York Yankees have been struggling as of late, dropping seven of their last 10 games and falling out of first place in the American League East.
Their recent struggles put them three games behind the Toronto Blue Jays, and what once looked like a team destined for another World Series run has some work to do to get back to that status.
The Yankees, like all other contenders, will be in the market for pitching upgrades. But New York will look for any upgrades even if it means sacrificing playing time for quality players.
Well, one possible upgrade that has been on the Yankees radar in the past has reportedly released his six team no-trade list, with the Bronx Bombers on that list.
Shockingly, all six teams listed are in a playoff spot as of now. While there are plenty of teams in contention that aren’t on the list, the list is a head-scratcher.
“According to Noah Hiles of the Pittsburgh Post-Gazette, the clause includes the New York Yankees, Los Angeles Dodgers, New York Mets, Toronto Blue Jays, San Francisco Giants and San Diego Padres,” wrote Bleacher Report’s Zach Bachar.

Reynolds, 30, isn’t having his typical season for the Pirates. Reynolds has 10 home runs and 45 RBI while slashing just .229/.294/.380 in 85 games.
Reynolds is on pace to hit only 18 home runs this season. He has hit 24 or more home runs in each of the last four seasons.
The Philadelphia Phillies seem like the most likely team that will be in on Reynolds, given their lack of production from left fielders this season.
Reynolds signed an eight-year, $106.75 million contract extension in April 2023, so a hefty prospect-package would be needed to pry him away from Pittsburgh.
