Infield a Worry for the Yankees in 1936 Season
The 1936 Yankees infield presents major concerns for Joe McCarthy as he plans moves before spring training. High asking prices for Buddy Myer and Pinky Higgins complicate deals, with Tony Lazzeri likely to handle keystone duties and reserves Heffner and Saltzgaver unproven. Crosetti’s knee and Labors at other infield spots add to uncertainty. Gehrig is solid at first, Rolfe at third, with Higginss debate and DiMaggio slated for left field. The battery remains strong with Dickey and Gomez leading a deep pitching staff.
