PT TOMORROW: AL East — 2020 foresight: Lineup changes

New York Yankees

The Yankees in 2020 will have the enviable quandary of figuring out how to re-integrate players who have missed most if not all of 2019, like Giancarlo Stanton (OF, NYY), Aaron Hicks (OF, NYY), Greg Bird (1B, NYY) and Miguel Andujar (3B, NYY), back into their lineup.

Jacoby Ellsbury (OF, NYY) stopped counting years ago, but he still technically has a guaranteed year left on his contract as well.

Andujar is perhaps the most interesting case, given the surprising breakout of Giovanny Urshela (3B, NYY). If Urshela is deemed to have done enough to secure his spot, Andujar could be trade bait, though the Yankees may let Andujar recoup some of his value in the minor leagues to start the season rather than selling low.
