FAQ?
Who is the starting left fielder for the 2023 Yankees?
Whomever is the starting left fielder for the 2023 Yankees, their statistical output might wind up being of secondary importance to their hitting profile and what they look like at the plate. There’s no such thing as a perfect lineup, but diversity in talent is generally a good thing.
Should the Yankees go with what they already have in the bullpen?
Another option would be going with what they already have in the bullpen. That includes two righties who are very tough on left-handed hitters, 2022 standout rookie Ron Marinaccio and the return of Tommy Kahnle as a free agent signee for $11.5 million over two years as of Dec. 6.
Is a big acquisition for left field a difference-maker for the Yankees?
The Yankees lineup is strong enough that a big acquisition for left field to fill out the roster isn’t poised to be a difference-maker in terms of competing for a championship.
Will Ron Marinaccio and Tommy Kahnle be on the Yankees' Opening Day roster?
That includes two righties who are very tough on left-handed hitters, 2022 standout rookie Ron Marinaccio and the return of Tommy Kahnle as a free agent signee for $11.5 million over two years as of Dec. 6. Peralta and Kahnle for sure will be on the Yankees’ Opening Day roster if they stay healthy, and Marinaccio probably will be, as well.
