Former Yankees top prospect Estevan Florial was one of the guys fighting for the LF position, as well as a potential bench OF spot, and now he has it. The former top prospect has had his share of ups and downs with the Yankees, but it came down to the wire, and he ended up making the 26-man roster.
There’s still the possibility that he’ll be DFAd, and other teams will have the option to sign him once Bader comes back from the IL since he doesn’t have any minor-league options left.
