Cashman: Jacoby Ellsbury will be the fourth outfielder

The New York Yankees are slowly piecing together their team for the 2018 season. But one player who won’t have set playing time is $153 Million man Jacoby Ellsbury.

During Day 2 of the General Manager Meetings, Brian Cashman revealed the starting outfield for the 2018 season would be Brett Gardner, Aaron Hicks, and Aaron Judge. That means barring a trade, Ellsbury would be the fourth outfielder.

Cashman all but said Ellsbury will be the fourth outfielder going into next season … which isn’t a total shock, considering his usage in the playoffs.
