“Insanity is doing the same thing over and over again and expecting different results.” That phrase is attributed to Albert Einstein, but it can be perfectly applied to the 2023 New York Yankees and their left-field plans.
Despite the fact he hasn’t been an above-average hitter over a full season since 2018, Yankees’ general manager Brian Cashman thinks Hicks is the favorite to start the year as the regular left fielder.
“I suspect he will be the guy that emerges [in left field] because he is still really talented, and everything is there,” Cashman said Sunday on SiriusXM MLB Network Radio.
