Yankees: Luke Voit can be the everyday first baseman moving forward
With signings in the infield, bullpen and starting rotation, this offseason has been an active one for the Yankees. However, first base, which some consider a position of defensive weakness, hasn’t been addressed.
Without any offseason additions at first base for the Yankees, that must mean Luke Voit and Greg Bird will battle it out for the position, right? I mean, Neil Walker, another guy that manned the bag in 2018 just signed a one-year deal with the Miami Marlins.
Notable names still out there in free agency that can play first base include Lucas Duda, Adam Rosales, Hanley Ramirez and Logan Morrison.
