As the 2021 MLB regular season winds down, it’s becoming more and more obvious that shortstop Trevor Story will be leaving the Colorado Rockies in free agency following the World Series. The latest hint comes from the Denver Post, which reported “The Rockies have not reached out to Story’s agent to open the door about Story staying in Colorado.”
Story, a two-time All-Star, will be part of a bumper crop of shortstops hitting the open market this winter, which also includes the Los Angeles Dodgers’ Corey Seager, Houston Astros’ Carlos Correa and New York Mets’ Javier Baez.

The New York Yankees could be in the mix for a free-agent shortstop, especially after moving Gleyber Torres back to second base. But money could be a hinderance. It’s possible the Yankees don’t want to pony up a nine-figure contract for a shortstop with a pair of $300-million contracts (Giancarlo Stanton and Gerrit Cole) already on the payroll. And don’t forget right fielder Aaron Judge is due a big payday, since he has just one year of arbitration eligibility remaining.
It’s entirely possible the Yankees pass on Story and the rest of the big-ticket free-agent shortstops and come up with a short-term stopgap plan while they wait for Anthony Volpe, the top-rated prospect in the farm system, to be ready for his MLB debut.
