Yankees have 2 prospects taking reps at third base ahead of position battle

The Yankees‘ infield puzzle remains unsolved, and spring training will serve as the battleground for a heated competition at third base.

While DJ LeMahieu and Oswaldo Cabrera are expected to be in the mix, the team is also giving two younger players, Oswald Peraza and Jorbit Vivas, a shot to make an impression. Both prospects were seen taking reps at third on Monday, signaling that the Yankees are serious about exploring every option before locking in a starter.
