Are the New York Yankees making a big mistake with Gleyber Torres?

Error 0:

The New York Yankees made the educated decision to move on from Didi Gregorius and plug Gleyber Torres into the shortstop role this offseason, but that choice could become a problematic one.

Torres, struggled immensely this spring in Grapefruit League play, committing five errors and blundering choppers and gather-throw sequences. He missed the target multiple times and look uncomfortable in his new role, which is a bit concerning based on the fact the Yankees are putting all their faith in the young slugger.

NJ.com spoke to a scout that also felt worried about his errors this spring:

“It’s a concern,” said the scout, who requested anonymity so that he could give an honest opinion.
