Yankees consider Yoan Moncada as infield option ahead of spring training

The New York Yankees are exploring options to strengthen their infield as spring training approaches. One potential target is Yoan Moncada, a former $70 million player, after the Chicago White Sox declined his contract option. Moncada, who struggled with injuries last season, played only 12 games due to an adductor strain. The Yankees had previously shown interest but have not recently pursued him, pending developments with other infielders. At 29, Moncada has a history of limited playing time, having exceeded 130 games in just three of his nine seasons. He could serve as a valuable addition at second or third base for the Yankees.
