Revisiting the Yankees’ Best Options at First Base
As Major League Baseball’s lockout drags on with no end in sight, it’s hard to think about potential future transactions.
A hot stove that should have already mostly happened is instead the backburner as the union and the league increasingly take their squabbles public. A war of words has replaced neglected negotiations, and major league spring training and games don’t appear imminent. The same goes for what’s left of free agency and other moves that typically happen earlier in the winter.
At some point, however, a new CBA will come to fruition. Whenever that happens, the Yankees will have a variety of needs to address. One position of concern is first base. Fortunately for New York, it has choices, and none are bad.
We wrote about the Yankees’ first base options back in October, but it’s worth revisiting each now that some time has passed.
