A handful of narratives exists surrounding the Yankees that define the fans’ perception of the team. Will Hal spend or cheap out? Is this the year that the Yankees move on from Gary Sánchez? Will they keep Aaron Judge in pinstripes? Why don’t they add more lefty batters or players who strike out less? When will they address the rotation? What the heck happened to DJ LeMahieu? But to me the most important question — besides Judge — and the one I never expected myself asking is this: Who is the real Gleyber Torres?
Torres is the true enigma of this Baby Bomber Era.
