The New York Yankees are still weak in one category ahead of spring training

Error 0:

The opening spring training game for the New York Yankees is just one month away. The Yankees are well set for the season, but there is one place that could use some bolstering up, that being infield backups, particularly at shortstop and at second base.

With the loss over the offseason of shortstop Didi Gregorius to the Phillies, the Yankees are feeling somewhat comfortable with Gleyber Torres as their regular defense at short. The Yankees have Silver Slugger D.J. LeMehieu cemented into first base. They are very comfortable with the “hitting machine” in defense at second base.
