Yankees invite promising pitching prospect to Spring Training
The New York Yankees are preparing for a competitive spring training session starting next month. Management has brought in a myriad of different outfield options to compete for the vacant left-field position. Oswaldo Cabrera, Aaron Hicks, Willie Calhoun, and Rafael Ortega are the prominent names that will have a shot to earn starting reps during the 2023 season.
While the projected winner is Cabrera, he needs to showcase that his defensive excellence in 2022 wasn’t a mirage. However, the team has also brought in several bullpen arms to gain some experience against higher talent levels. Their latest elevation is RHP Sean Boyle, a 26-year-old relief pitcher out of Selden, New York.
