The 34-34 Yankees remain in the thick of the playoff race in the American League, where they sit 5.5 games back of the AL East-leading Orioles and 3.5 games out of a Wild Card position. If the Yankees fall off prior to the Aug. 1 trade deadline and decide to shop elite relievers Aroldis Chapman and Andrew Miller, they’ll garner interest from the Cubs, Nationals, Giants, Dodgers and Rangers, among other potential suitors
It seems to me that the Cubs need to make a serious push for Miller now that he's officially available considering the alternative of him going to the Nationals or Giants which would suck. The Cubs reported that Javier Baez is NOT AVAILABLE nor is Schwarber, Contreras, or Almorra. Gleyber Torres, Eloy Jimenez, Ian Happ, Jeimer Candelario and Mark Zagunis look like more realistic and potential options.
The Cubs were reportedly scouting Miller last week and really do need a quality lefty setup man. It would certainly put them over the top.
