Today marks an important day for the future of Greg Bird in pinstripes. By 8pm tonight, teams will need to tender contracts to players on the forty man roster who aren’t signed for the 2020 season. If a player isn’t offered a contract, he becomes a free agent. If he is offered a contract, he becomes a signed player with a salary to be determined later

The New York Post has a theory as to why Bird's future may be in jeopardy

With prospects Estevan Florial, Deivi Garcia, Luis Gil, Rony Garcia and Nick Nelson likely to be added to the 40-man roster to protect them from being selected in the Rule 5 draft at next month’s winter meetings in San Diego, the Yankees need to clear roster space. And that is before any free agents are signed
