Stanton in RF, Judge in LF? The Yankees said so s About the table
“I did mention it to them,’ If we need Big G in right field at Yankee Stadium, put me in left field,'” Judge said. “I don’t mind. I don’t mind switching positions so we can play me, [center fielder Harrison Budd] and Big G. We’re going to get some reps in spring training and hopefully feel comfortable there.”
Yankees manager Aaron Boone says there are no The established plan to start playing Judge in left field, though Boone admits the concept is “on the table.” Like Boone, Stanton believes he would benefit from semi-regular duties in the outfield.

“It will continue to be similar to last year,” Stein Dayton said. “[In July], I hit a roadblock with [the left Achilles] injury, but you’ve got to have a game plan like that and see what we can achieve and put us in the best shape to win every night — lineup anywhere in.”
the judge said: ” I know he wants to be a good outfielder. He’s good there.”
“I’m open to things like this, especially At home,” Boone said. “So we’ll see. That’s something I’d say I’m at least thinking about, and we’ll see how we can make it work and have player reps in different positions. So it’s not decided yet, but it’s on my board matter.”

That’s still absolutely there. It’s just getting him to post 110 times or anything else.”
Stanton participated in 290 of 546 from 2019 Possible regular season play since the start of the season.
“I believe he hits the outfield, I think it’s good for him It’s good for the game, but I also think it’s good for his health,” Boone said. “I think it’s good that when he’s healthy, he’s not just a DH. I feel like if you’re going to squat or bench press or run a marathon, you can’t just sit there and not do it. You have to work on those things “
