Yankees GM Brian Cashman says team is in play for both Gerrit Cole and Stephen Strasburg

Both Gerrit Cole and Stephen Strasburg will be on the open market this offseason, and according to Yankees’ general manager Brian Cashman, the team will be looking at one or both of the starting pitchers.

Speaking to reporters at the GM Meetings in Scottsdale, Ariz., Cashman knows the price will be high, but says the team will certainly do their due dilligence when it comes inquiring about the right-handers.

“We’re going to talk to Strasburg. We’re going to talk to Cole,” Cashman said. “We’re going to talk to the higher-end guys and talk to some surprise guys I’m sure. It’s hard to predict, but obviously anybody would have interest in players like that.”

Cashman also mentioned that he’s been given no directive by ownership to remain under the luxury tax threshold.
