Yankees' Aaron Boone Reveals Outfield Plan and Batting Order for Aaron Judge

Judge to primarily play centerfield, with occasional days at DH and left field, and is expected to bat third after Juan Soto in the lineup.

Aaron Boone, the manager of the New York Yankees, plans to primarily play Aaron Judge in centerfield for the 2024 season, with occasional days at DH and left field.
Boone has also discussed with Judge about playing a little bit of left field on certain days when he wants to get Trent Grisham in the outfield.
In the batting order, Boone is leaning towards using Juan Soto second and Judge third, though this could change depending on who is hitting leadoff or cleaning up for the Yankees.
Boone mentioned DJ LeMahieu, Alex Verdugo and Gleyber Torres as potential options for the leadoff spot.
Boone expects the Yankees outfield rotation to mostly feature Judge, Soto, Verdugo, and Grisham, with Giancarlo Stanton also getting some outfield reps.
