Yankees' Dustin Ackley: What you must know about the new guy

Posted Jul 31, 2015
It's expected that Ackley, 27, will play a jack-of-all-trades role. The Yankees have an obvious need at second base, but he hasn't played there much since 2013, when he played 53 games at the position. In 2012, however, he spent 142 games there as the Mariners tried to make him an infielder in a failed experiment. Ackley spent most of 2014 as a left fielder, where he's been for nearly all of 2015.
