I think it really depends on the trade deadline if we see Johnson or not. i really would like a right handed bat in this lineup to be honest. So I feel we need to go get another RH bat which doesnt leave Johnson anywhere on the roster to play every day.
I'll never really understand your obsession with getting a right handed bat when that's always going to be the short side of a platoon scenario.
Give me another left handed bat that absolutely destroys RHP over a solid right handed bat 10 times out of 10.
You look at the other teams in the playoff hunt and the Yankees are the only one that has more than 1 left handed starting pitcher anyway.
More often than not, you're facing right handed pitching anyway so just get the best bat you can regardless of what side of the plate they hit from.
Luplow can pinch hit against lefties later in games as needed.
