New York Daily News | Kristie Ackert: Infield defense has been something of a weakness for the Yankees over the past few seasons, and the departure of Didi Gregorius over the winter didn’t help that. Everyday shortstop Gleyber Torres is going to have to hit well to overcome his defensive shortcomings, which some scouts have described as lackadaisical and just plain slow.
New York Times | Patrick McGeeham: The Yankees draw four million fans a year, and that’s just the folks who come through the gate. The areas surrounding Yankee Stadium are dependent on the crowds at and around games to support businesses and livelihoods, and even while baseball returns tomorrow, those sensitive areas are in all kinds of trouble, having gone more than half a season with no business.
