New York Yankees' ace Gerrit Cole is expected to miss 1-2 months with an elbow injury, leaving the team with pitching concerns. The Yankees could consider signing free agents like Blake Snell or Jordan Montgomery, but may face financial constraints due to the competitive balance tax. Scouring the trade market for viable big-league starters is also an option, though the pickings are slim. Alternatively, the team could turn to in-house options like Will Warren and Clayton Beeter to weather the storm until Cole returns or a better option arises.

The New York Mets have acquired right-hander Adrian Houser and outfielder Tyrone Taylor from the Milwaukee Brewers in exchange for pitching prospect Coleman Crow. Houser, a seven-year veteran, struggled with injuries last season but has shown the ability to avoid hard contact. Taylor, known for his power, could provide a right-handed bench option for the Mets. The Brewers, looking for a cheaper option, traded Houser, who is entering his final season under team control. The Mets continue to search for additional starters, with free agent Yoshinobu Yamamoto on their radar. Crow, who underwent Tommy John surgery, will not pitch next season.
