David Robertson and thinking beyond 2018

Related Topics: Setup man

One of my favorite things about the 2017 Yankees was the return of David Robertson. The Yankees brought him back at midseason and he almost immediately took over as Joe Girardi‘s most trusted setup man. Robertson was unreal in the postseason too. He played a big role in getting the Yankees to within one game of the World Series. It was awesome to have him back.

Robertson was not a rental. The upcoming 2018 season is the final year on the four-year, $46M contract he signed with the White Sox three years ago, a contract that comes with an $11.
