"Marcus Stroman will be trash talking the Yankees soon" - Fans endorse Bronx Bombers releasing All-Star from roster

Ever since signing with the Yankees in January 2024, starting pitcher Marcus Stroman has been far from his best. This season, yet again, the 34-year-old has failed to impress, currently pitching with a 6.23 ERA.

As the Yankees brought in some much-needed reinforcements at the trade deadline, Stroman was released to make room for the incoming players.

Popular content page "Talkin' Yanks" announced this news via X on Friday.

"Yanks release Stroman to make room for their new additions," the post read.

Reacting to the move, plenty of fans in the comments appeared to be happy to see Stroman on his way out of Yankee Stadium.

Yankees set to activate Luis Gil from the IL on Sunday

Having enjoyed a fantastic rookie season in 2024, which led to him winning the prestigious AL Rookie of the Year award, starting pitcher Luis Gil established himself as a key part of the Yankees' rotation heading into the 2025 season.

However, Gil's 2025 season got off to a tough start, as he picked up a lat injury in spring training, which has kept him out of action since. Matters soon went from bad to worse for Aaron Boone and New York's coaching staff, as Gil's injury was closely followed by ace Gerrit Cole's elbow issue.

Though Cole is still set to be out for quite a while, New York will welcome Gil back to action on Sunday, as the Dominican is set to be activated from the IL and make his first start of the season against the Miami Marlins.

As the Bronx Bombers look to reclaim top spot in the AL East from the Toronto Blue Jays and contend for the World Series come October, fans will be hoping Gil can hit the ground running and put in the kind of performances that made his rookie season memorable.
