New York Yankees' Gleyber Torres taking switch back to second base in stride: 'Everything for the team'

BALTIMORE -- Gleyber Torres says he is taking his move from shortstop back to second base in stride.

Yankees manager Aaron Boone decided to make the change after Torres made 18 errors this season, including four in the past week.

"Everything for the team," Torres said before Tuesday night's game at the Baltimore Orioles. "I didn't really do a good job at short. I made too many errors and I feel the way we are right now we can't make any errors. So, I feel really good to move to second and I just want to be part of the team.
