The New York Yankees are in dire need of pitching help as the MLB trade deadline approaches. With the Yankees' offense struggling, their reliance on acquiring above-average pitchers is paramount. Six potential relief pitchers have been identified by industry insiders, including Aroldis Chapman, David Bednar, Félix Bautista, Mason Miller, Ryan Helsley, and Emmanuel Clase. Each of these players presents unique strengths and challenges for the Yankees as they seek to bolster their bullpen.

Chapman, a former Yankee, may be a tough sell due to past tensions and the rivalry with the Boston Red Sox. Bednar offers impressive strikeout numbers but comes with consistent control issues. Bautista and Miller are likely unattainable given the assets required for acquisition and the tension between division rivals. Helsley presents similar control issues, while Clase has experienced a decline post-season, making him more of a question mark.
