Yankees fans aren't convinced team will sign any big names after reports they've looked into Nimmo, Turner and Correa

Even after signing Anthony Rizzo, the New York Yankees have a lot of work to do this offseason. There are currently a lot of holes on the roster, but the front office is reportedly looking at big names to fill some of them.

Jon Heyman is reporting that the Yankees have looked into signing New York Mets outfielder Brandon Nimmo, Boston Red Sox shortstop Xander Bogaerts, Los Angeles Dodgers shortstop Trea Turner and Minnesota Twins shortstop Carlos Correa.

Those are the biggest names on the market outside of Aaron Judge, who the Yankees are committed to re-signing.

This isn't exactly news, as the team is often linked to the biggest names. However, to hear that they've actually reached out to these players and looked into adding them to the roster is a sign that they're legitimately considering signing them, which they largely haven't done in years past.

Despite that, their fans aren't convinced.

Fans have been let down on many occasions in recent years. The team passed on Manny Machado, Bryce Harper and others that could have filled the holes that still exist on the roster.

Until they actually do, the fanbase will not be impressed.

Are the Yankees going to sign any of these players?

The Yankees have a lot of options for the positions they need to fill, including their own free agents. Signing Judge would mean they need one less outfielder and would be less inclined to go after Nimmo.

It would also mean they have less money to go after Turner, Correa or Bogaerts. Those three are still options even if they sign Judge, albeit unlikely ones.

They have the money to sign whoever they want, so they could theoretically sign one of the shortstops, Nimmo and Judge, and put Nimmo in left field.

However, that isn't likely as that's just not how the team operates anymore and that's why fans aren't impressed with the reports that they're looking into big names.
