On Wednesday night, the New York Yankees continued their series with the Chicago White Sox (at home).
They are looking to lock in a series victory after already winning the first game by a score of 12-2.
New York Yankees Must Consider Signing Barnes

The Yankees have been one of the best teams in the MLB this season.
That said, one area they could use more depth is at catcher.

One player the Yankees should consider signing is free agent Austin Barnes.
He was with the New York Mets over the offseason (but did not make the final cuts).
The 36-year-old could be a good low-risk addition to their organization in a Minor League deal.
