Miguel Andujar is still set on proving he should be playing third base in the Bronx. The young talent continues to mash the ball this spring as he hit his third and fourth home runs today against Philadelphia. Andujar’s bat has been hot from the start as he’s 6-12 so far with four dingers. The late trade for Brandon Drury led many to believe that the third base question was answered for the Yankees but Andujar is not making it easy on rookie manager Aaron Boone. If he keeps hitting like this there is no way you can keep him off the major league roster for long especially because his defense is already major league ready. Drury, who also homered today, is capable of playing second base as well and that spot is still up for grabs. Right now I would go with Andujar at third and Drury at second, but there’s still plenty of baseball to be played this spring and I don’t expect a decision to be made publicly anytime soon.
