Paul Goldschmidt remains a Yankees option with some hurdles

Paul Goldschmidt seems willing to return to the Yankees, even as something less than a full-time player.

The Yankees are over the top tax threshold now, so they’d have to squeeze Goldy into the payroll.

Goldschmidt makes sense since the Yankees still aren’t sold on Jasson Domínguez batting right-handed and Goldy is better defensively at 1B than Ben Rice.

The Yankees also have been considering Austin Slater and Randal Grichuk, righty-hitting OFs.
