Michael Brantley, who is a free agent, is drawing some interest from the New York Yankees, according to ESPN's Buster Olney. (Buster Olney on Twitter)

Fantasy Impact:

Olney stated that the Yankees need more left-handed batting but that Brantley is a "Plan B" option if they're unable to re-sign DJ LeMahieu. It's unlikely the club signs both players and New York has been adamant about bringing LeMahieu back. Brantley was steady as ever for the Astros in 2020 with a .300/.364/.476 triple slash line to with five home runs and 22 RBI over 170 at-bats. He'll make for a great value in fantasy leagues, regardless of where he ends up signing this winter.
