\n You ask, we answer. The Post is fielding questions from readers about New York\u2019s biggest pro sports teams and getting our beat writers to answer them in a series<\/a> of regularly published mailbags. In today\u2019s installment: the Yankees.<\/em><\/p>\n

What will the Yankees do with the plethora of quality outfielders? [Aaron] Hicks, [Giancarlo] Stanton, [Aaron] Judge, [Mike] Tauchman, [Brett] Gardner, [Clint] Frazier and now it seems [Miguel] Andujar is in the mix, and [Estevan] Florial could come up in the future. \u2014 MM <\/strong><\/p>\n

Nothing at this point. The Yankees are in it to win a World Series, so moving any of the names you mentioned will play a part in that plan. Perhaps Frazier gets moved in a trade following the season, but the Yankees believe he will be a regular player in the big leagues.<\/p>\n

Stanton is more of a DH, Andujar is very raw in the outfield and might be needed at third base. As for Florial, he could play center field in the big leagues right now \u2014 based on his range, glove and arm \u2014 so they aren\u2019t going to give him away, despite two years of injuries and too many strikeouts.<\/p>\n

Remember, before the coronavirus shut down spring training on March 12, the Yankees\u2019 starting outfield was going to likely be Gardner in center, Frazier in left and Tauchman in right, because Judge, Hicks and Stanton weren\u2019t going to be ready for Opening Day.<\/p>\n

How does the new extra inning rule of having a runner start on second base impact the opposing pitcher\u2019s stats? Is it recorded as a hit? Base on balls? Count against WHIP? ERA if the run scores? \u2014 Bryant Cleary <\/strong><\/p>\n

The runner who starts the inning on second base will be scored as reaching on a fielding error, but no error will be charged to the team in the field or a specific player. If the runner scores, it will be an unearned run.<\/p>\n

If [Masahiro] Tanaka isn\u2019t ready to go by the time the season begins, will Clarke Schmidt be the No. 5 starter? \u2014 Julia <\/strong><\/p>\n

Does Clarke Schmidt really have a shot at making the rotation? \u2014 Boo <\/strong><\/p>\n

Let\u2019s go 2-for-1 here. It looks like Tanaka won\u2019t be ready for the first time through the rotation, but Aaron Boone has plenty of options should the absence last through nine game<\/a>s or so. Mike King and Jonathan Loaisiga could start, Boone could use Chad Green as an opener or employ multiple relievers at the beginning of a game.<\/p>\n

If Tanaka is out longer, the strategy might change. In March\u2019s spring training, there was talk that Schmidt might be able to help the big-league club at some point in the season. But that would have happ<\/a>ened after he pitched in minor league games prior, and the minor league seasons were canceled.<\/p>\n

Do you think it\u2019s a choice between Tanaka and [James] Paxton or will they try and lock them both up? \u2014 Chris Ardizzone <\/strong><\/p>\n

Here is what we know about the free-agent landscape following the season: Teams are going to operate with major financial losses due to COVID-19. That will certainly impact the free-agent market for Tanaka and Paxton, no matter if they stay or leave. My view is that the Yankees let the pitchers test the market. And never forget the $324 commitment to Gerrit Cole figuring into the Yankees\u2019 thinking about spending.<\/p>\n

In a 60-game season, what does it look like for the Yankees to still make a statement and be elite? \u2014 @Ben22Rivera <\/strong><\/p>\n

Before the coronavirus arrived, the Yankees were favored to win the AL East. Nothing has changed. How elite remains to be seen but they are the team to beat.<\/p>\n

What are the chances the Yankees sign Judge to a long-term deal, given his injury history. Would they go three years? Would he take it? \u2014 Jay <\/strong><\/p>\n

Here is my opinion on that without input from anybody else: Judge will reach free agency. Doesn\u2019t mean he leaves The Bronx but will get the chance.\n <\/p><\/div>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<\/div>\n
