The Yankees need a starting pitcher. Many could be available. Who should be Brian Cashman’s top choice?

It’s go time for Yankees general manager Brian Cashman.
With an ace, bullpen and everyday lineup good enough to get to (and win) the World Series, the Yankees appear to be in great shape. But with an American League full of juggernauts, there’s a chance this Yankees team doesn’t even make it back to the American League Championship Series without a big addition.
The area of need: Starting pitching. Specifically, a top-of-the-rotation arm to pair with Luis Severino in October.
While many names are out there in rumors, one stands out due to a combination of performance, team control and upside that can’t be matched by any other potentially available arm this summer.
Watch the video above to see which starting pitcher should be No. 1 atop the Yankees’ big board of trade candidates.
