Since the departure of Derek Jeter, the New York Yankees have had a rotating infield that has been unable to find its identity.
In 2017, it seemed the tandem of Miguel Andujar, Starlin Castro, Greg Bird, and Didi Gregorius would be a young infield that would last in lieu of a surprising playoff run after a rebuild in 2016. But all of their careers would fizzle out in the span of two years: Castro was dealt, Bird was released twice, Gregorius wasn’t resigned, and Andujar was DFA’d despite a promising rookie season.
The Yankees have also run through several infielders in the past six years, such as Luke Voit, Brandon Drury, Gio Urshela, Mike Ford, Tyler Wade, Rougned Odor, Marwin Gonzalez, and Josh Donaldson among others.
