Readers' Thread: First Base

June 2, 2024

***

Here's a question that should generate some good discussion...


A lot has been written about how Anthony Rizzo is in the decline phase of his career. His production has taken a turn for the worse.


How should the Yankees address first base going forward? Should there be a platoon? Should they stay with Rizzo full time? Should the Yankees made a trade, and if so, for who?

One reason why paying 1 player $50MM per is not a good idea, is that next season this team will most likely need a first baseman, third baseman, (maybe a second baseman) their ace has on opt out, the closer is a free agent, and the left fielder is a free agent. If Mr. Soto was reasonable, it might work out. But, as we saw already in DC, he and his agent are not going to be reasonable. Sorry, but it is, what it is! I've said 100 times already, he is a 1 year rental.

No real long term option in the minors for third base. Would look to trade for a solid or better major league third baseman with multiple years of control if one becomes available. Ryan McMahon, Isaac Paredes, Ke’Bryan Hayes. Not superstars but would help lengthen lineup. Prospect price would hurt, but could deal from positions of organizational strength.


Put DJLM at first for this season against lefties, have him super sub at 2nd and 3rd, play Rizzo as much as he deserves against righties. For next year and beyond, can see what Ramirez or Rice can do. Do not pick up Rizzo’s option.

Because nothing in the way that the Yankees have handled Peraza convinces me that their evaluators think that he is a major league contributor.

The Yankees will roll with Rizzo up to trade deadline and if nothing changes they will look internally I don't think they know which direction to go but if nothing is worthwhile by trade deadline they will continue on with Rizzo.

From Compton to the Bronx.jpg

"A young man from Compton rises to the highest levels of baseball greatness.

Considered one of the classiest baseball players ever, this is Roy White's story, but it's also the story of a unique period in baseball history when the Yankees fell from grace and regained glory and the country dealt with societal changes in many ways."
