The New York Yankees are seeking ways to improve the versatility of their players, as head coach Aaron Boone has begun to experiment with different ways to expand the skill-sets of specific athletes on the roster.
One of the players he mentioned that could move was third baseman Miguel Andujar, who could earn some playing time at first base. They will be testing him out during Grapefruit League games this spring.
“He’ll play entirely at third,” the Yankee manager said of Andujar. “That said, there may be a day or two that we pick to have him on a back field just to get some first base in, which we may do with (backup catcher Austin) Romine or (starting catcher) Gary (Sanchez) just to keep some versatile options when you get into a little bit of a bind.
