Yankees Looking for Help Behind the Plate
The New York Yankees secured a big part of their lineup by re-signing outfielder Cody Bellinger, but they're still looking to make some further tweaks to their roster. One item on the shopping list, according to New York Daily News' Gary Phillips, is a right-handed hitter who catches. All three of the Yankees' current catchers hit left-handed, and even though Ben Rice, Austin Wells, and J.C Escarra bring good production potential, they are a little lop-sided. Free agent catchers J.T. Realmuto, Danny Jansen, Austin Hedges, and Victor Caratini are all right-handed options who have already signed this offseason, with Elias Diaz, Christian Vasquez, and Mitch Garver among some of the top right-handed hitting catchers available on the open market. The team could also make a trade to fill the need before pitchers and catchers report in a few weeks.
