Part 5/10:
During discussions, Cashman mentioned various internal options, including DJ LeMahieu, who could potentially play at several infield positions. However, many fans are hoping he will primarily serve as a bench piece. Cashman pointed to Jason Dominguez, Oswaldo Cabrera, and Ben Rice as potential players to fill gaps within the lineup. While Dominguez's development is being closely monitored, Cashman suggested that patience should be exercised similar to how Anthony Volpi was treated last season, advocating for a measured approach to player readiness.
