Following a loss on Tuesday night to the Toronto Blue Jays, the New York Yankees saw another change to the first base position, which hasn’t necessarily been productive for the Bombers in 2017.
Chris Carter was designated for assignment for the second time in two weeks on Tuesday after going hitless — a common theme throughout his understandably brief career in the Bronx — and dropping a throw to first base. That left the unknown commodity in Ji-Man Choi, who was slashing .341/.417/.829 in Triple-A Scranton/Wilkes-Barre since June 23, look like the most attractive option.
