Backup in Center?

With the back injury to Hicks, I think there is a fair question that the Yankees need to ask. Specifically, what is the backup plan for center field?

We have an injured Hicks (who is injury prone to begin with), an aging Gardner and that guy who sits at home all day just collecting his salary and contributes nothing.

These seem to be our only options, and I don't think its unreasonable to predict that at some point 2 of them will be injured for at least 2-3 weeks.

So what should the plan be? I see a number of options right now:

1) Just run Gardner/Hicks out there every day with no days off

2) Bring on Florial

3) I believe Judge was out there for game or 2 in 2018, so maybe he shifts over and someone else mans a corner outfield spot (Frazier, Wade, DJL?)

4) Teach Frazier center

5) Tyler Wade

Is there another option I am forgetting? Forgive me but I am not exactly giddy about seeing another round of Shane Robinson.
