Around the Empire: Yankees news - 1/2/22

NJ.com | Randy Miller: Alex Rodriguez, one of the greatest players of all time, and one of the poster boys for baseball’s PED history, is Hall of Fame eligible for the first time. With 110 votes made public at the time of writing, A-Rod falls well short of enshrinement, garnering around 47 percent of the total vote. Contrast this with fellow first timer David Ortiz, sitting at north of 80 percent of the ballots, and it’s hard to see a way for Alex to get into Cooperstown this cycle.

Twitter | Joe Migliaccio: When the Yankees hired Dillon Lawson as their big league hitting coach for 2022, it meant that they would have to find a new minor league hitting coordinator.
