Gleyber Torres has been a Yankee since he arrived as the centerpiece of the deal that sent Aroldis Chapman to the Cubs prior to the 2016 trade deadline.

It proved to be the first of several uncharacteristic moves by the Yankees that July, when they were sellers instead of buyers. The Chapman trade was soon followed by the decision to ship Andrew Miller to Cleveland and Carlos Beltran to Texas for prospects.

Torres was the marquee minor league acquisition at that deadline along with Jackson (Clint) Frazier, who arrived from Cleveland and whose Yankees tenure was derailed by concussion issues and generally poor play before finishing last season with the Cubs’ Triple-A affiliate.

Now Torres’ future with the Yankees is uncertain. With the winter meetings set to begin Sunday in San Diego, Torres — who turns 26 later this month — might find himself on the move.
