Yankees: Luke Voit ranked as the third best first baseman by MLB Network
The New York Yankees may be an arm short in the depth chart, but there is no question that their offense is among the very best in the league. The lineup is deep and extremely powerful, and Luke Voit is a big part of that.
In the 2020 season, Voit had a major power brekaout, even if the campaign had only 60 games. He had a major power breakout and lead MLB in home runs with 22. In addition, he slashed .277/.338/.610 with a .393 wOBA and a 152 wRC+.
MLB Network released a ranking of the best first basemen in MLB. The Yankees’ slugger appeared third on the list, only behind Freddie Freeman and Paul Goldschmidt.
