Are Slade Heathcott and Jacob Lindgren a glimpse at the next generation of great Yankees baseball?
The biggest knock against the Yankees, from the mouths of rivals and ignorant fans, has been that the club purchases championships. That the pens and dotted lines do the talking, rather than the gloves and bats. That the double buttoned suits and ties are more of a reason for the World Series Championships than the pinstriped uniforms. If there wasn’t a good enough counter to that argument yet, there now seems to be one. Actually two–Slade Heathcott and Jacob Lindgren.
