Justin Bourof the Miami Marlins is a name that has also been associated with the Yankees as a potential target at first base.

Bour, another lefty who could take advantage of the short porch in right field, has hit 18 home runs and driven in 54 runs with a .289 batting average this season.

He, like Hosmer, Adams, and Duda, could fill in at designated hitter on occasion as well.

Hosmer, Adams, Duda, and Bour are just four of the numerous trade options the Yankees will have available to them when it comes to addressing their first base woes.

Almost anyone would be an upgrade from the production they’ve gotten so far.

With plenty to offer in their farm system, the Yankees have a realistic shot at landing any one of these players in their effort to make a postseason push.
