Dustin Ackley set to play pivotal role for Yankees in 2016

Posted Feb 20, 2016
With starter Mark Teixeira down due to various injuries the past few years, there's a solid chance Dustin Ackley will see significant playing time at first base in 2016 as well as in the outfield. Ackley played 27.0 innings there last year for the Yankees and spent three years playing nearly every game in college at first. It's a spot, unlike second, where he doesn't have to get reacclimated.
