Happy Birthday PR - when Didi comes back-probably in Cleveland so he won't start on turf - I'm thinking Estrada will be sent down. DJ will become the 'floater'/utility player which is what Estrada is doing now. When Judge/Stanton return, Frazier will probably go down to S/WB to refine in right field skills - guess they're trying to help him learn three OF positions, he still has a problem reading the ball off the bat. Cessa is out of options which is why they are giving him every opportunity to find his stuff - he will probably get action tonight with CC starting & Green pitched last night.
I think the Yanks were grooming Frazier to play left field all along but because of injuries and his strong arm right field was forced on him to learn during the regular season. When Judge gets back, it's his. Also think Stanton was a RFer before the Yanks and he also was learning LF as a starter last year. That's added pressure on him coming to a new team, nm the NY pressure. Cessa? I think unfortunately, we found his stuff and it's not good enough for this championship team.
This surprising start has made roster spots a very high commodity to attain.
