Since his debut in 2017, Tyler Wade has been a household name for the New York Yankees. Although he’s seen his fair share of struggles, he’s managed to find himself on the Yankees roster for at least parts of last four seasons, even seeing action in 52 of 60 games in 2020. What will his role look like in 2021?
Wade’s 2021 role is highly dependent on whether the Yankees re-sign DJ LeMahieu, and whether they acquire someone like Francisco Lindor. If neither of those happen, there’s a chance he could start games unless the team manages to sign someone else.
