Aaron Hicks will remain in center when Jacoby Ellsbury gets healthy
New York Yankees outfielder Aaron Hicks will remain in center field after Jacoby Ellsbury returns from his concussion, Yankees manager Joe Girardi said.
With that said, Ellsbury doesn't yet have a timetable to return, so this may not be an issue for a while. Hicks has earned the promotion, though, with some outstanding play.
He is batting .318 with 10 homers (with 2 coming in Friday's win over the Baltimore Orioles), 34 RBI and 7 steals. Hicks shouldn't be on the wire in any season-long formats, and in DFS, he's been particularly attractive when the Yankees are facing a lefty as he usually hits second in the order in those games.
