Yankees hint at exciting new leadoff hitter—game-changer in the making?

The Yankees seem to be inching toward a decision on their leadoff spot, even if they aren’t making any grand announcements just yet.

General manager Brian Cashman kept things vague during a Thursday interview with the YES Network, but he did suggest that Aaron Boone has a direction in mind, though he wasn’t sure if the manager had made it public.

Boone, however, has already hinted at the idea of Jasson Dominguez getting a crack at the role, which would signal a shift in philosophy at the top of the lineup. With Gleyber Torres departing in free agency, the Yankees are in search of a table-setter, and Dominguez might just fit the bill.
