Marwin Gonzalez
If the New York Yankees want to go the super utility, albeit probably pretty expensive free agent route, Marwin Gonzalez will be there for the taking. He is the kind of player that every major league team is looking for in baseball 2019. He’s a guy who can switch hit, play everywhere and contribute on both sides of the ball. He would be a much more expensive version of Profar, except he would only cost the Yankees money and not prospects, nor a draft pick, since he wasn’t given a qualifying offer. The fact that everyone can use him, will drive up the price tag though.
Gonzalez rated as a plus defender in the outfield and in the infield in 2018. He may not be the 900 OPS guy of 2017, but an OPS of .730, while providing plus defense and positional flexibility you sign up for that.
For the Yankees, he would probably slot into second while Gregorius is out. After that, Aaron Boone can use him all over the place, giving players rest all over the diamond and providing depth.
Like I mentioned with Profar, being that Swiss-Army Knife on a club is so important and with Gonzalez’s hitting ability, it makes it even more valuable.
