NEW YORK -- In a season that has so far been defined by the contributions of a medley of once-mostly unknown New York Yankees, it can be hard singling out one player. But nearly 20 homers into a season that isn't even 60 games old yet, here we are.
The big slugger Brian Cashman calls 'The Kraken' has been unleashed, and he's having quite the impact.
If 2017 was the Year of Aaron Judge on the Yankees' lunar calendar, and 2018 was the Year of Giancarlo Stanton, then it's starting to look like it's safe to call -- even at this very early juncture -- 2019 the Year of Gary Sanchez.
