Yankees lack of depth against lefties needs…
There are no excellent groups, although the Dodgers sure are attempting. Every membership enters spring with issues — then provides a few more whereas in camp.
The most mentioned Yankees shortcoming as they set out to defend their AL championship is at third base (assuming Jazz Chisholm Jr. is at second) as DJ LeMahieu makes an attempt to show he nonetheless is a main leaguer, a lot much less a beginning third baseman, and/or Oswaldo Cabrera tries to reveal that he’s more than a utilityman.
The Yanks are also susceptible if one thing occurs to Austin Wells. They can be left with Alex Jackson, who has not been capable of stick within the majors as a backup catcher as a result of his offense is so horrific, or Ben Rice, whose defensive acumen has been questioned (although Wells’ was, too) or a group with zero main league expertise, together with J.C. Escarra, who the Yankees like.
But getting much less consideration is: 1. Big image, do the Yankees have enough firepower against lefty pitching? 2. Smaller image, have they got a platoon accomplice vs. lefties for Jasson Dominguez?
