Yankees Shopping Miguel Andujar

By Steve Adams | July 29, 2022 at 10:42am CDT

Miguel Andujar’s journey from American League Rookie of the Year runner-up to organizational depth in the Bronx has been well-chronicled by now, and the it’s long seemed possible he could find himself with a clean slate and fresh opportunity before next Tuesday’s trade deadline. Jon Heyman of the New York Post writes in his latest notes column that the Yankees are “trying to deal” Andujar, who first requested a trade in early June.

Still just 27 years old, Andujar finished second in AL Rookie of the Year voting with a .297/.328/.527 batting line and 27 home runs back in 2018. A shoulder injury ruined his 2019 season, however, and a series of other Yankees acquisitions and/or breakouts (e.g. DJ LeMahieu, Gio Urshela, Josh Donaldson, Joey Gallo) have combined to limit Andujar’s opportunities in the Majors since that time. He’s worked to improve his defensive versatility, learning left field and first base in addition to his customary slot at the hot corner, but it still hasn’t resulted in much in the way of big league playing time.

Since returning from that 2019 shoulder surgery, Andujar has received just 279 plate appearances with the Yankees. In the team’s defense, he hasn’t hit well at all in that time, slashing just .249/.280/.358. Then again, the playing time has been sporadic, with Andujar always keenly aware that he could be optioned at any time. The Yankees have optioned Andujar to Triple-A Scranton a whopping nine times since Opening Day 2020, and even during his stints with the big league club, he hasn’t been a regular in the lineup.

There’s no denying that Andujar hasn’t forced the team’s hand, and with stronger big league production he’d likely have found his way back into the fold. We often hear about hitters struggling through inconsistent usage, though, and at least based on his Triple-A output, there’s a case to be made that Andujar’s big league struggles can be at least partially attributed to his lack of a role. The competition in Triple-A is obviously far weaker, but Andujar has nonetheless slashed .304/.355/.516 with 15 home runs, 13 doubles, five stolen bases (in five tries) and just an 11.4% strikeout rate through his past 299 Triple-A plate appearances (2020-21). Despite that production, the Yankees have given him 52 big league plate appearances this season.

Trading Andujar is something of a tricky notion for a few reasons. The Yankees clearly value him as a depth option and don’t simply want to give him away for nothing of value in return. At the same time, his stock isn’t exactly at a high point, given the lack of recent MLB production. A contending club isn’t likely to surrender a prospect pf any note and plug Andujar right into the lineup at third base as they push for a postseason berth. Similarly, a club in the midst of a pure rebuild (the Nationals, for instance) may not relish the idea of surrendering long-term value in order to acquire a player who’s only controlled another two years beyond the current season.

Regardless of the specific fit, a deal involving Andujar seems likely to come together either in the next few days or over the winter. He’s in his final minor league option season, meaning the Yankees will need to carry him on the Major League roster next year or else place him on waivers before being sent down to Triple-A, and he’d surely be claimed by another club at that point. The Andujar dilemma has been ongoing in the Bronx for what seems like forever, but perhaps it’s finally headed toward a resolution.

          imo, they will DFA Gallo eventually. They’re shopping him to see if there’s any interest at all, either as a standalone trade or a throw-in. If they can’t fit him in a trade, they’ll just DFA him. He won’t be a Yankee on August 3rd.

        Andujar isn’t having a terrible season. His AAA numbers are good. His big league numbers aren’t as good but that can be attributed to bouncing up and down during the season. I don’t think he will get a lot in return but he could be a part of a bigger deal.

          He’s been 18% above average at AAA but he’s also 27. They’ve also stuck him primarily in left field. His last three cups of coffee in the majors have resulted in wRC+s of 71, 81, and 56. Caveat emptor.

        Andujar should come cheap. His value is 2 1/2 years of control. With his trade demands it probably doesn’t help (MLB isn’t the NBA). Andujar hasn’t been good for the Yankees recently but Gallo has been worse.

      He has 2 more years of control and is arb eligible. You expect a team to give up player(s) for him, and then non-tender him hoping he will then sign a minor league deal with them? That is a bit silly.

    I’d really love to see what Andujar could do with regular playing time, and it’s beyond me how Joey Gallo continues to get at-bats when they could have been going to Andujar. Can’t expect him to perform at a high level when he’s yo-yoing between the majors and the minors and never able to relax.

        Tucker Davidson or Huascar Ynoa straight up for Andujar—or both for him. All 3 need a change of scenery. Braves need a rh left fielder/DH. Yanks get value from one, or both, of Davidson and Ynoa. All 3 are blocked in their team’s current system. Change of scenery deal w/value for both sides.

          They might be but they don’t have a future w/the Braves. Both could be useful as 1 TTO pitchers, but the Braves aren’t going to use them that way. The Yankees might. Piggyback value pitchers might fit their currently injury weakened staff. Should deal them before they wither away at Gwinnett and lose the small trade value they still possess. Andujar seems like the kind of guy AA should be targeting, imo. The Braves farm isn’t going to get them a Happ or Castillo. Might as well target a reclamation project w/their expiring trade assets that have enough value to get a once productive guy like Andujar.

          The Yankees destroyed Andujar ‘s value by mismanaging him.
          The Front Office hoarded prospects like Andujar, Frazier and more by over valuing them in trades and by not giving them regular playing time on their major league team.
          I get it that they are loaded in talent and some of these players were blocked by star players @ the MLB level.
          However, it is not fair to the players and not fair to the fans to bury these guys in the minors or on the minor league shuttle.
          Andujar, should have been traded long ago for younger prospects, don’t just sit on them and bury them by
          constantly riding the minor league shuttle is not a confidence booster and can hurt the development of some of these young players.

          Frazier was another one who could have been a productive major leaguer
          playing full time on a team smaller market team in a city that is less
          pressure packed than New Yoirk.
          Sonny Grey is an example of a guy who is a productive major leaguer, but did not produce to his talent level in the bright lights of New York.
          .
          The Players association needs to address these issues and offer some reforms to ownership.

          Sonny Gray “did not produce to his talent level” because he let out a s#!t-eating grin as Yankee fans booed him off the mound.
          He was far from the only Yankee import bust — Ed Whitson and Carl (American Idle) Pavano come to mind.

          You are spot on with that. Du can hit. His fielding at 3rd was suspect because his lower half was never positioned right for accuracy, which you need on the left side of the infield. He never had a problem getting to the ball. Left Field and 1B were places of weakness on the big league club, so they tried it, then he got hurt.
          I am a big fan of his, and I want to see him get his chance. It hurts to do, but a team that needs a bat on the cheap, I think you can do worse. The 2 1/2 years of control gives a team a chance to keep him on the cheap if he does well. There’s still a lot of talent there. Give him a chance.

          That’s just not professional. I remember that. It’s just a shame that you can come here and be revered for being a main cog in a deep playoff run, but instead come across as distant and not interested.
          Jameson Tallion has been awful the last two months. What did he do? Worked with Blake and come out fighting. Six shutout innings. I know KC is having a tough year, but they were matching us zero for zero until Judge walked it off. Doesn’t happen with Jameson doing what he did.
          Sonny wants to be anonymous? Have fin never mattering other than a footnote in Yankee and Oakland history. I’m sorry we bothered you with an opportunity to never pay for a steak dinner in New York again.

    Sometimes you need to get rid of players regardless of what their value. This maybe one of those players. Of course, if you could get rid of Gallo and Hicks (not sure how) then you can keep him as a bench piece who maybe can regain his old form.

      Do you even follow the Yankees? Andujar had been hurt for about two years and he hasn’t been too good in the majors. As far as Gallo is concerned, the Yankees needed a left-handed bat(s) in the worst way and picked up Rizzo and Gallo. How was Cashman supposed to know that a guy (Gallo) with that power would flame out? The trade made perfect sense. Now that they have Carpenter and AB they no longer need Gallo.

      Donaldson in hindsight looks bad since he is not doing well and Urshela is. However, they needed to dump Sanchez so this is what they had to do. The pitching staff without Sanchez is much better so I look at this as a win.

    Idk which club he fits on but I feel like he is going to be dirt cheap and has a chip on his shoulder. Might be a sneaky good deal. I would suggest the O’s as I usually do but I don’t see how he fits with the system depth, Urias being hot and DH being clogged up with Adley, Mancini, Mountcastle etc. but I hope he gets a real shot.

      NYY, and to a lesser extent Boston, have HUGE hype machines over their prospects. (websites, news, devotion).
      Compared to other teams.

      The prospect backups, who were overhyped, often do not perform, and are believed to be forever blocked. This is often partially true. But the narrative mostly proves false. As it would any teams prospects.

    greetings good sir I am but a simple general manager of a professional baseballing team and I would like to propose a transaction by which your club will provide mine with a legendary talent who would normally cost a large number of valuable future baseballers, but in this case, you accept my final offer of Josephus Gallo III, the ghost of Jackson Frazier, and one Miguel Andujar. Should you question the future value of said Andujar, might I recommend reading the comments section of the New Amsterdam Post Sports section. I await your response with great anticipation.

    I’m not sure Andujar makes any major league roster. His hitting has gotten consistently good worse and while his fielding stats are better this year, he has been pretty bad in the past.

    If I’m the GM for a rebuilding team, I wait for the Yankees to release him and try to sign him to a AAA contract. If someone is willing to actually expend team resources to trade for this guy – that would be foolish, but more power to them.

      Exactly. No one is trying to be clever. It is mocking equally non-clever comments heard thousands of times. In my case over many many decades.

      These types of proposals are what spawn the Yankee fan jokes. Tigers aren’t going to trade Skubal for Andujar despite how much Tiger fans complain about Avila’s trades. Andujar is a throw in on a trade for Skubal. Trading Fulmer straight up for Andujar is more reasonable but he wouldn’t replace Candi at 3B and not sure the Tigers want a bad LF that might hit someday to replace Grossman.

      The last I heard, Seattle was balking at a Haniger for Snell proposal. Snell (healthy TOR-ish arm signed for 13m in ’23) is much more valuable than a hurt rental OFer and the two teams “couldn’t” make up the difference. We’ll see if it gets revisited but I’m betting the house on different (minor) transactions happening.

        Instead of hysteria from so many the following are all true imo

        He was a terrific hitter in the live ball Era.

        He was legendarily poor at 3rd base.

        A promising career was detailed by injuries.

        He is hitting very well at AAA.

        He appears to be a decent corner outfielder.

        He hasn’t gotten a major league shot since his rookie year due to a mix of injuries, mediocre defense and limited success in a small samplings of opportunities.

        He may well become a good hitter again if given an opportunity in a Cincinnati, KC, etc. Or he may prove to be a AAA player

        The Yankees will not get a roster player for him but may get a decent A prospect with some upside talent.

        I hope they trade him. I hope he gets an opportunity and I hope he has a good major league career.

      Probably a bit of an overpay by the Yanks but maybe if there is a bidding war and the Yanks really want Castillo. It’s a much better trade proposal then most if Yankee fans think they are trading much less then that they aren’t getting Castillo.

      You won’t get both Peraza and Dominguez. If Castillo were the only option, maybe — but he isn’t.

      Besides, I seriously wonder how Luis would respond to being forced to cut off his hair and beard under Steinbrenner’s antiquated grooming policy. Would a Samson syndrome ensue? If he felt humiliated and it affected his performance, the impatient Yankee fans wouldn’t cut him any slack, and the whole thing could spiral downwards.

    Yankees have done him dirty. He put up 4.9 oWAR in his age 23 (rookie) season. The guy clearly can hit in the majors and he’s getting into his prime years now. Terrible defensive 3B but seems fine in the outfield. So what do the Yankees do? Let him rot in AAA while bringing in one retread outfield stopgap after another. They destroyed his trade value and then decided they were better off keeping him as depth because they couldn’t get anything for him. So he stagnates further. Meanwhile we had to suffer through Joey Gallo for over a year rather than give him a shot.

    Seems pretty obvious they’re just going to cut him (DFA, to be specific) after the deadline or at latest after the season, and all 29 other teams know that. So they’ll get precisely nothing for him, unless he’s a throw-in to a larger deal (speaking of which, it’s really telling that he wasn’t in the Benintendi deal, despite no doubt the Yanks offering). Might as well just clear the roster space.

      Because he’s (undoubtedly) out of options, which means you need both a 25 man and a 40 man slot for him and can’t option him anymore without him being snagged on waivers (which would cost nothing for the acquiring team and is probably what lots of teams are waiting for). I don’t know all four of those teams’ systems but the Pirates and Rockies certainly have better options at all the positions he plays, and the Nats have the resources to buy a better option when they’re ready to compete again.. Marlins might be interesting but their two best position players are their 2B and 3B, and there are much better 1B and corner OF on the market.

      What might happen is someone grabs him for next to nothing and tries to slip him through waivers to send him down to AAA one more time. But that’s a lot of If’s and it would have to be close to absolute zero cost, at which point the Yanks might as well just cut him.

      Lots of teams have an Andujar. Us Rockies fans are already frustrated because the organization isn’t giving Elehuris Montero any playing time at 3B.

    Yankees are not likely to get more than a lottery ticket for Andujar and i would hope Cashman knows this. Maybe a team like the Pirates or Diamondbacks take a flyer for the rest of the year but they are about 4 years past him having any real trade value

    Makes some sense from the Pirates perspective. Probably doesn’t require much in the way of prospects. Could be the 3rd OF next year with Reynolds and Suwinski. Or could get a long look at 1B.

    What do the Yankees need in return?

      Quintana and a mid/lower prospect.

      Andujar is doing a bit better in AAA this year and could be poised to make a ‘come back’ if he has a position in the MLB

      Pirates get him, plop him at first and OF depending on who gets called up. He’ll get playing time here that can allow him to get some MLB PAs.

      Yanks probably want more though.. i doubt anyone is that high on Miguel to go any further than a rental and low end prospect.

      edit: Cruz would make a great 3rd OF too. Cruz is going to have too move off of short eventually and probablly sooner than later.. he is average at best there. if it wasn’t for that arm speed he would be off of short already. Accuracy and time to throw is not that good.

    “The Yankees have optioned Andujar to Triple-A Scranton a whopping nine times since Opening Day 2020, and even during his stints with the big league club, he hasn’t been a regular in the lineup.”

    That pretty much says it all. Anybody who thinks Andujar has no gripe should read that sentence.

    “At the same time, his stock isn’t exactly at a high point, given the lack of recent MLB production.”

    Why’s that? Oh, that’s right . . . you kept him down in Triple-A while you gave the playing time to Joey Gallo, even though Miguel was good for 0.2 bWAR in only 14 games, while Joey only managed 0.1 bWAR in 81 games. I say this not to bash Joey, for whom I feel sympathy, but to make the case for Miggy, for whom I also have sympathy and who I think has a right to feel like he’s been screwed around.

      So first of all 14 games is nothing. The list of players who put up .2 bWar over any 14 game period of their careers is miles long

      Andujar is a guy with ok power, low OBP because he doesn’t walk, and no real defensive home. If you’re lucky you end up with an Eddie Rosario who doesn’t steal or play the field. Those guys grow on trees in the high minors. I don’t get the obsession with him

        And Gallo isn’t on that list this year. In fact, he’s accumulated 0.5 bWAR in his entire Yankee career. Like I said, I’m not bashing Gallo; just comparing him to Miggy, who got sent down while Joey struggled.

        In Scranton this year, Andujar has a .343 OBP and a .489 SLG with 10 HR and 12 doubles in 219 AB. His only teammates with more HR are Peraza (13) and Florial (12). That doesn’t look like a low OBP or a lack of power.

        In his only full season in the majors, before he was injured, this was his line with 27 HR, 47 doubles, 92 RBI, and an ISO of .230:

        .297/.328/.527/.856

        He was good for a 19.6 UZR/150, 3 DRS and 1 OAA in 106 innings in left field this year, so, yes, he does have a real defensive home.

        Maybe he’ll never replicate his rookie year, but I hope he’ll get a chance to try with another club. He’s worked hard enough to improve his game and deserves a shot.

          Andujar is now quite old for AAA. There would be something seriously broken if he weren’t putting up big numbers there, and said big numbers do not prove he is a different player than before

    The legendary bat speed of Clint Frazier…the legendary power of Joey Gallo…the legendary all fields hitting of Andujar. One can begin to see a pattern. Cash is the best GM the Yanks have ever had not named Stick Michael. But if he has a flaw it is that he can sometimes overthink things. Sometimes a guy with a loopy swing…is a guy with a loopy swing.

      Two of those guys — Frazier and Andujar — were afflicted with injuries. There was nothing illusory about pre-injury Andujar’s hitting. He bested DiMaggio’s rookie record for doubles and would’ve been ROY were it not for Ohtani’s two-way debut.

      As for Gallo, that was just a bad trade apparently precipitated by an overreliance on WAR ratings that failed to account for what a bad fit another high-strikeout slugger would be on a team full of them. Whether they should’ve anticipated his inability to function under the New York spotlight is debatable. I mean, how do you appraise that? That sort of thing doesn’t show up in the medical reports.

    It’s world series or bust for Yankees. They don’t want to be the best team in the regular season, then get bounce before the world series. So before they start bidding against themselves to keep Judge, they are going all out. Not a yankee fan, but i’d be surprised if they don’t make a couple of huge star power splashes.

        I wonder how come other teams don’t hype their prospects. Maybe they just don’t care as much. I think it’s great to get excited about the next potential Yankees star and if it doesn’t work out, so be it. Look to the next guy.
        But as far as crazy trade proposals go, Yankees fans definitely don’t have the market cornered. I’ve seen idiotic crap from all fan bases.

    I’d almost say – trade him to Colorado, and play him in LF. You can move Bryant to RF, and Charlie Blackmon to DH.

    Trade Connor Joe, CJ Cron, Daniel Bard, Chad Kuhl, Jose Iglesias (who’s hitting .353 on the road and .243 at Coors) and Alex Colome for prospects – especially higher level AAA Prospects.

    Jose Quintana, his 2022 remaining salary and a 40/45 prospect based on pipeline, if they still need an inning eater? think i saw they might have gotten one already.

    Put Miguel in the minors exclusively in OF and 1B and call up Martin for a bit see what happens… if martin does what he is doing in AAA this season then call Miguel back up and see if he can handle Cruz’s rocket launcher arm.

    MIguel seems to do okay at AAA but hasn’t done much for a while. I think a cheap rental and a decent prospect. with a kicker isn’t unreasonable. Yankees probably want more those because he does have the time to figure out how to work through the problems. Very understandable but i doubt many would consider giving up much more.
