Story summary
  • The New York Yankees are evaluating the need for a right-handed bat to balance a lineup with six left-handed hitters.
  • The ideal fit would be versatile, able to play first base, third base, and the outfield, while limiting strikeouts.
  • Last season, the Yankees had all their catchers bat left-handed, and key players returning could heighten the rationale for a righty addition.
