The left field position for the New York Yankees is still up for grabs. Aaron Hicks, Oswaldo Cabrera, and Estevan Florial are all competing for the starting job, despite Cabrera playing multiple positions during spring training. The Yankees are trying to maximize his value, which suggests Cabrera plays a utility role rather than taking over the starting LF job full-time.
The Bombers have been getting Florial some reps and at-bats, but he sometimes looks lost. Hicks, on the other hand, has enjoyed eight at-bats this spring, recording two hits and a run. He hasn’t done anything overly exciting, despite hoping for noticeable changes after tweaking his batting stance.
