Given the Yankees’ commitment to getting under the $197 million luxury tax threshold, I don’t know how they fit Stanton in, especially in an outfield that already includes Brett Gardner, Aaron Hicks, Aaron Judge, Jacoby Ellsbury, Clint Frazier, and prospects Tyler Austin, Billy McKinney, Jake Cave, and others.
Both Stanton and Judge are rightfielders.
They don’t want a single player holding down the DH spot, so they can rotate various players through it.
Right, doesn’t seem likely Yankees will pull the trigger with the talent they have on board, but with their recent shenanigans with Girardi and Boone, they are a wildcard.
Jeter and crew so far are coming off as screw ups, they fired one of the best broadcast teams in MLB for no apparent reason, (maybe Jeters wife/girlfriend had some say).
