For better or worse, the Yankees seem to believe they’re set at first base going into 2019

All offseason long the focus for the Yankees has been pitching, pitching, and more pitching. Starters, primarily, but also bullpen help as well. And they need a Didi Gregorius replacement too. Almost everything we’ve seen and heard this winter has revolved around pitching and a middle infielder to replace Gregorius. That’s pretty much it.

Despite positional uncertainty, we’ve heard basically nothing about the Yankees looking for first base help this winter. Nothing other than Brian Cashman essentially shooting down speculation the Yankees could sign Bryce Harper to play first base. That has been the extent of the team’s first base rumors this offseason.
