New York Yankees outfielder Brett Gardner will remain in the starting lineup for Game 2 of Wednesday’s wild-card series versus Cleveland, leaving Clint Frazier on the bench. Gardner went 3-for-5 with a home run during Game 1, unlikely to lose his spot after such a performance. Despite manager Aaron Boone talking up Frazier as of late, it appears that the current Yankees starting nine is entrenched for the time being. With Cleveland projected to start another righty -- Zach Plesac -- in a possible Game 3, Frazier’s absence may continue into the ALDS should New York advance.--Jesse Borek

The Toronto Blue Jays have checked in on free-agent outfielder Brett Gardner. At this point, it's become unlikely that Gardner returns to the New York Yankees after spending the last 14 seasons in the Bronx. The 38-year-old hit just .222/.327/.362 with 10 home runs, 39 RBI and 47 runs scored in 461 plate appearances over 140 games with the Yankees last season. If New York doesn't want him back, there's a chance that he'll just hang up his cleats as well. If Gardner lands in Toronto, he'd strictly be a bench option for a stacked Jays roster and would have very little fantasy appeal.--Keith Hernandez - RotoBaller

Free-agent outfielder Brett Gardner intends to play in 2022, according to his long-time agent, Joe Bick. Bick also said that Gardner would prefer to stay with the New York Yankees for the rest of his career. If Gardner were to return to the Bronx and play in 102 games this year, he would pass Willie Randolph, Joe DiMaggio, Don Mattingly and Bill Dickey for ninth place all-time in games played for the franchise. The 38-year-old veteran hit just .222/.327/.362 with 10 home runs and 39 RBI in 140 games last year, and he's mostly a bench bat/injury replacement at this point in his career. Despite a rough 2021 season, Gardner hit .261/.351/.441 with a .791 OPS from Aug. 1 through the end of the year.--Keith Hernandez - RotoBaller

New York Yankees outfielder Brett Gardner declined his $2.3 million player option on Thursday, and the Yankees declined his team option for $7.5 million, which makes him a free agent this winter. Gardner will receive a $1.15 million buyout after making $1.85 million this year. The 38-year-old outfielder hit just .222/.327/.362 with 10 home runs and 39 RBI in 140 games in 2021, and he will contemplate his future with his family during the offseason. Relief pitcher Darren O'Day also declined his $1.4 million player option and took a $700,000 buyout. If Gardner does not retire, he has interest in re-signing with the Yankees as a veteran bench bat and outfielder.--Keith Hernandez - RotoBaller
