Yankees Mailbag: LeMahieu’s positioning and Volpe’s chances

Good afternoon everyone, it’s time to dive back into the mailbag and answer some of your questions. Remember to send in your questions for our weekly call by e-mail to pinstripealleyblog [at] gmail [dot] com.

Brad G. asks: What’s your best guess on games started at 1B/2B/3B this season for DJ LeMahieu?

Guessing exact numbers will be a bit difficult because it depends on LeMahieu’s health, but the plan as I see it is that LeMahieu plays around 60-70 percent of his games at second, another 20-30 percent at third, and then the last chunk spelling Rizzo at first.
