The New York Yankees have taken a rather conservative approach toward filling the vacant left field position. Management has already indicated that rolling with players currently on the roster is a likely possibility, but I wouldn’t rule out a potential trade before spring training starts in a few weeks.
While the Yankees haven’t made a big signing or trade to acquire left-fielder, general manager Brian Cashman has been adding minor-league talent to compete during the spring.
Three veteran outfielders the Yankees are hoping will compete for LF job:
1.) Michael Hermosillo
Hermosillo is a 27-year-old outfielder who played for the Chicago Cubs last season.
