The New York Yankees could use some more depth right now.

New York is in a great position, tied with the Baltimore Orioles at the top of the American League East with an impressive 72-50 record. The Yankees and Orioles will battle for the top spot in the division for the rest of the season.

The Yankees have a real chance to do something special this season, but could still use a little more offensive depth. Alex Verdugo has struggled at bat and the Yankees have not gotten as much power from first base as they hoped.

One familiar face that could be a potential option for New York is outfielder/first baseman Willie Calhoun. According to ESPN’s Alden González, he was recently optioned to the Los Angeles Angels.

“Sources: The Angels have DFA’d DH/1B Willie Calhoun,” González said. “He had an OPS of .695 in 68 games for them.”

Calhoun played in 68 games with the Angels, posting a batting average of .245/.315/.380 with five home runs, 16 doubles and 20 RBIs. He spent the 2023 season with the Yankees, appearing in 44 games. He is a well-known option who could provide depth in both left field and first base.

His offensive production this year isn’t exactly stellar, but it would be an improvement over what New York currently has. He would cost next to nothing. Why not consider a reunion to help down the stretch?
