The New York Yankees must decide the fate of right-hander Luis Gil before the November 20th non-tender deadline. Gil's career has been hampered by injuries, particularly shoulder issues, leading to a 4.61 ERA in 2026. He started transitioning to a bullpen role this season, which may impact the Yankees’ decision to retain him or not.
