Didi Gregorius’ rough 2019 season hasn’t shown any signs of improving as the playoffs approach.
After missing the first two-plus months rehabbing from offseason Tommy John surgery, Gregorius has had brief runs of success at the plate, but not sustained.
And before Aaron Boone gave him a day off in Sunday’s home finale, Gregorius found himself in another slump.
Over his past eight games, the shortstop is 5-for-31 with one extra-base hit, four walks and eight strikeouts.
After the Yankees closed out their home slate with a win over Toronto, Gregorius said his timing has been off.
