Yankees: Kris Bryant could be a Plan B in case Rizzo or Freeman don’t sign

The New York Yankees continue to be quite behind in terms of signatures, since before the arrival of the work stoppage they were not so active in that field and several of the largest free agents have already signed. However, Kris Bryant did not find a signature and positions himself as one of the most versatile players available in the market, and in case some signings do not materialize for the Yankees, the former Cubs and Giants could figure.

According to information from SNY’s Scott Thompson, the Yankees could see Kris Bryant as a kind of Plan B to occupy various positions in the infield, mainly first base if the possible signings of Freddie Freeman and Anthony Rizzo do not materialize. , being an option at half the price of both.

During his stay at the San Francisco Giants, Kris Bryant stood out for his versatility and his availability to play in different positions, playing in practically the entire infield except shortstop, in addition to the outfield interchangeably, being the only positions that he did not touch at all. they were the SS, the catcher and as a pitcher.

Bryant had a good season in 2021, returning to the All-Star Game with a .265 / .353 / .481 batting line, 25 home runs and 75 RBIs.

I’m a fan of the San Francisco Giants, a number one defender of Barry Bonds, and a critic of the Los Angeles Dodgers. Fernando Tatis Jr., Juan Soto and Ronald Acuña are the future of baseball, Mike Trout is overrated, and the Astros deserved to be taken away from the World Series for cheating. Besides baseball, I also enjoy soccer, football, basketball, and just about any other game that includes a ball or a ball. I am also an amateur musician, penniless gamer and very nerdy.
