JUST IN: The New York Yankees’ two-time All-Star is batting dreadfully.

Gleyber Torres has struggled in both his offensive and defensive roles in 20The two-time All-Star for the New York Yankees is hitting a pitiful.237/.313/.368 and leads all MLB second basemen in erro24. rs for the second straight season with 13. Torres may soon find himself playing a different position after the Yankees traded for Jazz Chisholm Jr. on Saturday. Following New York’s 8-2 victory over the Boston Red Sox on “Sunday Night Baseball,” the 27-year-old told the media that he wouldn’t be happy about being moved to a different spot on the diamond, especially if it’s the hot corner.

The statement made by Chisholm Jr. regarding maybe seeing time at third base contrasts sharply with this.

The former Miami Marlins All-Star stated, “I could go and play anywhere and help my team win,” according to an ESPN article. “It’s just going somewhere, for me. especially a team that is winning, and they want me to travel somewhere to support their victory? Without a doubt, I’m going to go try it.”

In the last year of his Yankees contract, according to the article, Torres hasn’t played third base since a “brief stint” in the minor leagues in 2018.

Torres expressed his dissatisfaction with the potential switch, although he added that he would practice in the role “just in case” and be “kind of ready for anything” in “a couple days.”

“I would like for (Chisholm Jr.) to begin working there,” stated Aaron Boone, manager of the Yankees. It’s evident that he hasn’t played it. He appeared as a shortstop, and it seems that he possesses the necessary skill set. Though I want to see how that turns out, I know he’s willing to accomplish it.”

Whatever way Torres ends up playing in New York in 2024, his remarks on Sunday night will undoubtedly not win him any new admirers in a notoriously tough place to play—center field, where he made his debut with the Bronx Bombers against the Red Sox. Giancarlo Stanton is expected to return from the injured list on Monday, though, so he’ll probably start out in a rotation with Aaron Judge, Alex Verdugo, and Juan Soto.
