Where are at-bats available in left or at first? Unless they're fully committed to a full-time DH role for Stanton. But still, are they then trading Frazier? What about Andujar, or are they giving up on Urshela? I guess Tauchman and Maybin would be the odd men out.
Then at first, depending on whether they bring back Didi, they need somewhere to put LaMahieu. And what about Voit? And Bird is supposedly again on the comeback trail.
I'm never going to complain about the Yankees acquiring talent, and a lefty who can hit in Yankee Stadium is always a great thing. But it had better not interfere with breaking the bank to put Cole (and hopefully a second starter like Wheeler) in pinstripes.
There are way to many moving pieces to even speculate.
If Didi gets big offers on the FA market, you would think they go with Torres as the SS of the future. It’s his natural position, he’s cost controlled, and much better offensively than Didi. 2B is DJLM’s best position so that makes sense.
With Hicks out, Gotta assume Tauchman is our CF next year with Gardy coming back as a 4th/5th OF.
Who knows what will happen with Andujar and Clint Frazier. They have too many guys in front of them in line to DH.
Are Luke Voit and Gio Urshela 1B/3B of the future? Both could probably be upgraded but they’re cost controlled, Young, and on the upswing offensively.
Can’t count on Bird to do anything more than be a backup with his injury history.
