WATCH: Which pitcher should be top Yankees trade target at deadline?

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.

Bumgarner to NY?

Watch the video above to see which starting pitcher should be No. 1 atop the Yankees’ big board of trade candidates.

PROSPECT SPOTLIGHT

Tyler Nunez, a C from Lake Nona HS, is a 6'2 190lb athletic catcher who provides strength with the bat and glove. During BP, Tyler stuck with a middle of the field approach while staying on a line. He impacted the ball well with his compact and direct path, T90EV. He showed off his real athleticism behind the plate by posting a 2.04 pop time while staying around the bag on every throw. He is a good looking athletic uncommitted catcher to keep an eye on.
