New York Yankees veteran Amed Rosario risks being left off the team's postseason roster as the club prepares for October. With the postseason approaching, the Yankees are evaluating roster depth and offensive versatility. Analysts suggest that Paul Goldschmidt could fill the right-handed bench role previously held by Rosario. Meanwhile, the defensive contributions of Ryan McMahon and the positional flexibility of Jose Caballero and Luis Garcia Jr. provide additional roster options. The final composition of the bench remains dependent on the health and return of other players within the organization. If the team remains short-handed, Rosario may retain his position, but a return of sidelined starters would likely displace the 10-year veteran.

- •Rosario posted a 93 OPS+ during the current season.
- •Paul Goldschmidt is considered a potential replacement for the bench role.
