If there’s one area where the Yankees might be set for the 2022 season, it’s the outfield. Aaron Judge, Aaron Hicks, and Joey Gallo are expected to be the main trio, with primary DH Giancarlo Stanton likely to see some starts as well when the others receive days off. However, depth is obviously a necessity, especially with Hicks still somewhat a question mark in center field.
If the Oakland Athletics are as much sellers as they appear to be once the lockdown lifts — they’ve already been rumored to seriously consider deals for Matt Olson, among others — outfielder Ramón Laureano could make sense as a fourth outfielder for the Yankees.
