Spring training is generally not the time to worry about the little things. Big picture-wise, the Yankees are doing quite well this spring – most of their top players look healthy and productive, they’re winning ballgames, and they haven’t had any COVID-related issues.
However, if you want to get nit-picky, the Yankees do have one potential area of concern that is slowly starting to manifest this spring training: the team has very little infield depth behind its starting group.
Now, let me be clear that the Yankees’ starting infield is excellent on paper. Luke Voit holds down the fort at first base as the reigning MLB home run king; DJ LeMahieu can play three different positions and is the heartbeat of the offense; Gleyber Torres looks set for a bounceback year, and Gio Urshela is fully recovered from his offseason elbow surgery.
