Only Aaron Judge had more home runs, as well as a higher slugging percentage and OPS-plus on the Yankees last season than Anthony Rizzo.
Among the teams in need of a first baseman are the Astros. with the departure on Friday of general manager James ClickBefore leaving the organization after rejecting a one-year contract offer from team owner Jim Crane, Click was at the GM Meetings in Las Vegas and called first base “a priority position for us.”
The Giants, believed to be among the top threats for Judge if he doesn’t stay in New York, could also go after Rizzo, now that Brandon Belt is a free agent. Jose Abreu is also a free agent, leaving the White Sox without an answer at the spot and general manager Rick Hahn, while not addressing the possibility of Rizzo directly, said he’s “pro left-handed slug.” In the playoffs, Rizzo and Harrison Bader were the only Yankees to provide any offense. Rizzo finished with a .984 OPS in nine games, behind just Bader’s 1.262.
