Past Lessons Influence Yankees' Decision on Tarik Skubal Trade
The New York Yankees have backed away from acquiring Detroit Tigers ace Tarik Skubal, prioritizing cost control and long-term stability.
Team insiders attribute this decision to lessons learned from past blockbuster trades that failed to yield championship results despite costing top prospects.
The Yankees face uncertainty in their rotation due to Carlos Rodon's elbow surgery and Gerrit Cole's recovery from Tommy John surgery, but general manager Brian Cashman is cautious about risking the farm system for a short-term move.
The decision marks a philosophical shift inside the front office.
