Just as Gleyber Torres has finally begun to hit, the Yankees are not going to ask him to move positions — at least not yet.
BOSTON — , who has mostly played second base and center field as a big-leaguer, manager Aaron Boone spoke with Torres about getting some work in at third base.“I’m a little reluctant to do that right now, but I will probably have Gleyber work over there a little bit just on different days, just to try to see and let it shake out naturally what makes the most sense,” Boone said Sunday before the series finale at Fenway Park.
After hitting a two-run double in the 10th inning of Saturday’s 11-8 win, he entered Sunday batting .316 with a .869 OPS over his last 20 games. Giancarlo Stanton remains on track to be activated off the injured list Monday in Philadelphia after missing five weeks with a hamstring strain. They sent J.D. Davis packing on Sunday, designating him for assignment to make room for Chisholm on the active roster.
LeMahieu has struggled the most, but he still has two years and $30 million left on his contract after this season, making it a costly option.
