The New York Yankees have been at the center of Nolan Arenado trade rumors for weeks, but a prominent MLB insider in the city believes there’s a different multi-time All-Star who could be a better fit for the team, despite the risks involved. With just over a month until the start of the 2025 MLB season, excitement is building around the Yankees, who reached the World Series in October and are hoping to go all the way this year. Despite losing Juan Soto to their crosstown rivals, the New York Mets, the Yankees made several offseason moves that likely improved their roster.

However, one major question mark remains: third base. Jazz Chisholm ended the 2024 season at the hot corner but is shifting back to his natural position at second base this year. Stepping in at third will be 36-year-old veteran DJ LeMahieu, who played only 67 games last season due to ongoing injury issues. This uncertainty has fueled the Yankees’ interest in Nolan Arenado, but earlier this week, *New York Post* MLB insider Joel Sherman argued that New York should pivot away from Arenado and instead take a chance on three-time All-Star **Carlos Correa**.
