Yankees Lineup with Stephen Drew

With the addition of Stephen Drew to presumably play second base for the New York Yankees the defense looks to be improved but the offense will likely struggle once again in 2015. The lineup is very left handed heavy, which is not uncommon for Yankees lineups, and lacks true pop in many (most) positions. Let’s take a quick look at the starting lineup for New York is the season started today.

-          Jacoby Ellsbury (CF)

-          Brett Garder (LF)

-          Carlos Beltran (RF)

-          Mark Teixeira (1B)

-          Brian McCann ( C)

-          Chase Headley (3B)

-          Stephen Drew (2B)

-          Alex Rodriguez (DH) *Hitting low here to break up lefties but probably hits behind Headley*

-          Didi Gregorius (SS)
