Yankees 2014 Season Preview: Right Field

Today, I am completing the outfield. The previous six parts in this series were center field, left field, shortstop, third base, second base, and first base.

Starter: Carlos Beltran
Carlos Beltran was acquired last offseason from the St. Louis Cardinals. He is a veteran player and has a .333 average in the postseason. He brings about twenty homeruns with a batting average of around .300. He should be an everyday starter unless he gets injured.

Backup: Ichiro
Ichiro will be a backup this year and will probably play in less than 100 games. He is in one of his last years as a player, but he still can provide speed at times. Last year, he stole twenty bases with an average of .262.  Ichiro will mostly backup around the outfield.

I will cover the pitchers in my next post.
