Yankees Rumored to Be Interested in Potential Reunion With Veteran Relief Pitcher

Yankees GM Brian Cashman has expressed his desire to be aggressive at this year's trade deadline in hopes of shoring up whatever roster needs the team has before the second half of the season.

Robertson was linked to the Yankees as a possible mid-season acquisition by The Athletic's Will Sammon on Tuesday.
