The New York Yankees made several roster additions this winter in hopes of rebounding from a disappointing 82-80 campaign in 2023. Looking ahead to next winter, they’ll have to drop a lot of money to retain outfielder Juan Soto on a long-term deal. But what about infielder Gleyber Torres?
Regarding Torres, his extension projection came in at four years and $68 million. According to Spotrac’s market value calculation, that’d be a $60 million discount. With an annual market value of $18.3 million, they’re projecting a seven-year, $128 million deal.
Chris Kirschner of The Athletic caught up with Torres at New York’s spring training complex in Tampa, Florida on March 5. When asked about his upcoming contract status, the second baseman was adamant about wanting to remain in the Bronx for the rest of his career.
“I always say, I feel (at) home right now,” Torres said. He continued by saying, “I know this organization since 2016. I feel good. I know everybody. As a player, you never want to leave your house. I’m in a good spot. I want to be a Yankee for life. That’s one of my goals. Let’s see what happens.”
