Miguel Andujar Could Move To First Base
6 years agoThe New York Yankees are experimenting with the idea of using third baseman Miguel Andujar (shoulder) at first base or designated hitter as he recovers from a torn labrum in his right shoulder. Manager Aaron Boone said that Andujar is making progress in his rehab, but said "we're having conversations" about a position change. Andujar was in the running for American League Rookie of the Year in 2018 when he hit .297/.328/.527 with 27 home runs and 92 RBI, so they'll find a spot for him in the lineup if he can't play third base. However, moving him to first would mean that Luke Voit would likely lose playing time.
