So, Brett Gardner is back.
The Yankees and their longtime outfielder came to an agreement on a one year plus option deal Friday night, almost certainly the final transaction in what’s been a busy winter. Gardner will spend his 14th season in pinstripes, and while he’s remained an effective bench option for the Yankees, there are reasonable questions around how he will be used.
For me, I’m all in on Clint Frazier. I’ll have a deeper dive on him next week, but he made exactly the kind of changes in 2020 that are sustainable and projectable, and he should be starting 150 games for the Yankees in left field.
