Although the Yankees came to a one-year, $555k agreement with five-time All-Star, Troy Tulowitzki on Wednesday, they remain heavily linked to free agent superstar, Manny Machado.
While Machado would be an immediate defensive upgrade at third base (New York has already said Tulo would man shortstop until Didi Gregorius returns), it does create a bit of an issue as to what to do with 2018 AL Rookie of the Year runner-up, Miguel Andujar.
For me, Andujar, 23, is young and athletic enough to learn a new position such as left field or first base. His innate ability to hit the way he did last season is the reason I’d be hesitant to trade him so soon — even if Machado does bring his talents to the Bronx.
