Alas, the Yankees decided against a qualifying offer for Torres. It wouldn’t come as a surprise if they move on from him altogether, as Hal Steinbrenner has made it known that he’d like a payroll below $300 million while simultaneously retaining Soto.

It remains to be seen whether the New York Yankees will try and re-sign Gleyber Torres in free agency this offseason. Regardless of whether he returns to the Bronx or ends up elsewhere else, Torres showed down the stretch and in the playoffs that he can be an asset to any team's lineup.

The Yankees notably balked on extending a QO to second baseman Gleyber Torres, who will now enter free agency. The 27-year-old has become a polarizing figure amongst the Yankee faithful, with his inconsistent play dividing the fanbase on whether or not it’s wise to keep him on the roster.

According to ESPN’s Jeff Passan, the Yankees extended the qualifying offer to Juan Soto, but they did not for second baseman Gleyber Torres.
