Ender Inciarte sends a message and goes for the position of Aaron Hicks

The Venezuelan gardener, Ender Inciarte, reported that he is prepared to show his better version with the team of yankees In the season 2022 of the Major Leagues – MLB.

The winner of three Gold Gloves, Ender Inciarte, is ready to prove himself in the second chapter of his career, which will begin in the “Spring Trainings” with the organization of the New York Yankees.

The Venezuelan outfielder expressed that he is still prepared to do great things, that he can still give more. Inciarte came to the Yankees in December on a minor league contract, which made him a low profile, but Inciarte could join the team because of his extensive outfield experience.

Injuries have haunted the outfielder since 2019, a broken thumb, then discomfort in his back, strains in his hamstrings, he suffered from COVID-19, all this has been the cause of the poor performance of the Creole player.

Outfield situation at the Yankees

It is evident that the fight for a place in the MLB team is not easy, taking into account that Aaron Judge is immovable in right field and Joey Gallo is ready to return to left field, leaving center field as a vacancy to fight.

Brian Cashman said that center field is a position that could be improved. That being the opportunity that Ender Inciarte could have, this is because Aaron Hicks, after signing a contract extension in 2019, has struggled to stay healthy.

Other names enter the list, such as Giancarlo Stanton, who could play left field, but as we know his performance is mainly designated hitter.

Miguel Andujar and Estevan Florial can also make the list because they are on a 40-man roster, but Andujar can’t play center field and Florial hasn’t hit in Triple A and obviously doesn’t have the experience of a Venezuelan outfielder.

Inciarte, with an outstanding performance in spring training, could be the ideal candidate to become the starting center fielder for the New York Yankees.

Ender Inciarte’s recent stats

During his last three seasons, the native of Zulia state, has hit .223, hitting only eight home runs and leaving an OBP of .307, the Atlanta Braves set him free at the end of July 2021 where he subsequently played only 15 Triple-A meetings with the Cincinnati Reds.
