Yankees Tender Contract to Gary Sánchez, Avoid Non-Tendering Any Players
“As the clock struck 8 p.m. EST, the league has once again passed the non-tender deadline. This means that all 30 teams have offered contracts to their pre-arbitration players and will either sign them or advance to arbitration for those who are eligible, or they have chosen to let them become free agents,” reports Ryan Pavich in SB Nation.
“The biggest name on the Yankees roster that was on alert for this deadline was Gary Sánchez, who for the second-straight offseason had rumors circling that the team might not offer him a contract. Sánchez has made it through both instances, though this time there was definitely some hesitancy the Yankees were rumored to be interested.”
