The notion of shifting Miguel Andujar from his primary position of third base to first isn’t a new concept. Following 15 errors committed during his Yankees rookie season, many suggested such a move would suit his unorthodox throwing style.
Now add in the fact that Andujar is rehabbing a slight tear in his right labrum and the “move Andujar movement” has again picked up steam.
And so on Thursday, Andujar took batting practice hacks at “90-95 percent effort,” and reported no issues other than normal soreness. With that, the possibility remains that Andujar could make his return to the everyday lineup sometime this season, either as the DH or at first base.
