As we’ve discussed several times recently, the Yankees need a left fielder.
We’ve discussed multiple external options, namely Max Kepler and Ian Happ. Michael Conforto and his being a poor fit in the Bronx were also mentioned.
But in-house, the Yankees have an intriguing left field option in super-utility player Oswaldo Cabrera. An infielder by trade, he played everywhere for the Yankees last year except center field, catcher, and pitcher. He probably could have too, had manager Aaron Boone asked him.
What’s more impressive is Cabrera accomplished this in a small sample size.
