The New York Yankees have been showing signs of improvement in their offensive game lately, but there’s always room for more refinement and additional players to strengthen the roster. In a recent four-game series against the Houston Astros, the Yankees managed to split the series, with a significant score of seven runs on Sunday, yet they fell short of victory.
If the Bombers seek further offensive reinforcement, they might consider reacquiring Luke Voit, the 2020 home run king. Voit’s career has seen him bounce between several teams over the past two seasons, including stints with the San Diego Padres, Washington Nationals, Milwaukee Brewers, and even some time with the New York Mets’ AAA affiliate.
Manager Aaron Boone was questioned about Luke Voit’s potential return as a free-agent option for the Yankees, and he did not dismiss the possibility. Although Boone stated that he hadn’t delved deeply into the situation, he left the door open for a potential reunion, saying, “We’ll see.”
With Anthony Rizzo currently sidelined due to a concussion, possibly for an extended period, the Yankees have called upon Jake Bauers to fill the void.
Though a reunion with Voit may not seem highly likely at this moment, the Yankees could benefit from his offensive support. Voit’s powerful bat could invigorate the bottom of the order, where the team is in dire need of reinforcements.
