Can Jacoby Ellsbury bounce back after his nightmare 2015 season?

2015 was not Jacoby Ellsbury's year, no one is debating that. The Yankees will definitely want their $153 million man to get back on track this year.

Jacoby Ellsbury has had better years than 2015. After getting off to a hot start, he tweaked his knee in late May, and was never quite the same after returning from injury. From his return on July 8th to the end of the season, Ellsbury put up a slash line of .224/.269/.332. During that stretch, he had just seven stolen bases in 11 attempts, only 19 extra base hits, and probably got hit with the Michael Jordan crying face photoshop at some point.
