TAMPA, Fla. — A lot of the attention Wednesday afternoon at George M. Steinbrenner Field will be to Harrison Bader's right where, for the first time since college, Aaron Judge will man left field.
The reigning American League MVP and slugger looming over all of baseball has spent the opening years of his big-league career as a right fielder, sometimes center fielder, and then the regular appearances at designated hitter. With former Cardinal and Gold Glove-winner Bader covering center and former NL MVP Giancarlo Stanton stationed in right field, there's interest from the Yankees in shifting Judge to left.
