Potential options to solve Yankees’ biggest problem will be on display at All-Star Game

PHILADELPHIA — It is possible the Yankees opt for a sensible trade-deadline upgrade at catcher and swing a trade for a solid hitter such as Ryan Jeffers, who is a righty with a capable bat (which fills a need) and has a history with catching coordinator Tanner Swanson (which helps).

Jeffers probably will be attainable because he is in his walk year for the hovering-around-.500 Twins and is an injury concern anyway, recovering from hamate surgery.

They could swing for the fences, though.

On display this week at Citizens Bank Park will be three All-Star catchers who are playing with teams that may authorize sell-offs.
