Youthful New York Yankees Infielders Expected To Make Major Jump In 2019

Despite the New York Yankees bringing in veteran infielders Troy Tulowitzki and DJ LeMahieu, the team plans on featuring both Miguel Andujar and Gleyber Torres in their regular starting roles.

Some might get the feeling that the Yanks brought on five Gold Gloves between the two signings to supplant the youthful duo if they begin to struggle defensively. Andujar recorded 15 errors at third-base and Torres a combined 17 errors at shortstop and second-base.

It was clear that Torres was better fit for the second-base position, simply due to his lack of experience at shortstop and the requirements it demands at the professional level.
