Amed Rosario’s first-base glove and the players who can unlock a more switchable Yankees lineup
NY Post
Perhaps it will be much ado about nothing.
Or maybe it will be somewhere in between Trent Grisham taking ground balls at first base semi-regularly over the past two seasons and Oswaldo Cabrera actually playing first base on occasion after making himself an option there.
But when the Yankees re-signed Amed Rosario earlier this month, Aaron Boone asked the right-handed-hitting utilityman if he had his first-base glove ready. Rosario has played a total of 7,718 innings in the field throughout his big league career across seven different positions — every one except catcher and first base.
The Yankees are planning on at least seeing if Rosario can be an option at first base this season, though. He occasionally could be a complement to the left-handed-hitting Ben Rice and perhaps mean they will not have to devote more dollars to a righty-hitting first baseman.

SAN DIEGO — As you may have seen elsewhere in this newspaper (and also if you haven’t deleted me yet from your social media), I have a book coming out Tuesday called “The Bosses of The Bronx.” Much of it details the 37 years’ worth of antics, winning, losing, winning again and overall mania of George Steinbrenner’s time with the Yankees.
