In recent hours, two names have been linked to the Yankees: Gavin Lux and Luis Arraez. Both can play second base.
But now Lux, whose name has also been linked to the Mariners, has just learned that it is in Ohio, under the colors of the Reds, that he will continue his career. He was traded for a compensatory pick and prospect.
The Cincinnati Reds traded Jonathan India to make room on the outfield earlier this offseason. But there, Lux is added and that changes the situation.
Jeimer Candelario, Christian Encarnacion-Strand, Spencer Steer, Matt McClain (the club’s second baseman), Santiago Espinal and Noelvi Marte are all options.
Elly De La Cruz is not an option: he is the starting shortstop.
Is it possible that, as Jim Bowden pointed out, Lux still gets traded to the Yankees? It would be a adjust a little more logical for the Bombers, in any case… but the journalist finally retracted, saying that Lux would play second, third and outfield.
-In Los Angeles, the arrival of Hye-seong Kim opened the door for Lux’s departure. Now, could Betts get some playing time at second base, opening at shortstop in some games?
Kim, Andy Pages and James Outman will fight for equal playing time. The defensive versatility of Tommy Edman (center field, center infield) will also help the Los Angeles club
- The Red Sox out of the Alex Bregman affair?
- Michael Lorenzen remains in Kansas City.
- Luis Arraez, not one adjust in New York?
