The New York Yankees had a revolving door at the first base position last season, featuring Luke Voit, Edwin Encarnacion, Mike Ford, and DJ LeMahieu at different times throughout the season.
The Yankees’ top utility player, LeMahieu, was the best defensive option of the group, posting a .992 fielding percentage over 40 games. While his sample size isn’t significant, he proved to be the best option among the grouping. However, in 2020, LeMahieu will return to his natural second base position, leaving Luke Voit to fend for himself at first.
Voit’s explosion onto the scene in 2018 provided him with the opportunity to lock down the first base position moving forward.
