Dallas Keuchel says he would shave signature beard to sign with Yankees

One-time Yankees killer Dallas Keuchel is entertaining the idea of donning pinstripes.

So much so the free agent pitcher is willing to shave his signature beard in order to abide with team protocol.

"I think everybody is in play right now," Keuchel said in a recent interview with Fox Business. "The lure of the city would be really cool. I like pitching in Yankee Stadium.

"For the right opportunity, I would happily shave this beard off," Keuchel said, channeling his inner-Johhny Damon who did so in 2005. "It's all about winning. I've made that very clear from Day 1 of my career starting to this position right now."

But don't stock up on shaving cream just yet, Yankees fans.

While Keuchel, 31, has a history of tormenting the Yankees stretching back to the 2015 wild card game, he struggled a ton this past season.

The Yanks, who have made pitching a priority this winter, had their way with the southpaw, tallying seven runs in two wins against Keuchel.

It was an overall down year for the 2015 Cy Young winner, who posted career highs in hits allowed, walks and WHIP.

The Daily News' Wally Matthews suggested Brian Cashman stay away in his Yankees free agency primer.
