Gleyber Torres isn’t making a demotion easy on Yankees

PORT CHARLOTTE, Fla. — When Gleyber Torres tore up the Arizona Fall League last season at age 19, it was hard to predict what he would come up with an encore.

Just a few months later, Torres, just 20, is showing that was no fluke.

The infielder continued his torrid spring with two more extra-base hits in the Yankees’ 10-6 loss to the Rays on Tuesday.

He’s made a fan of Gary Sanchez, who knows something about taking a league by storm.

“For it to be his first spring training, it’s been great for him,” Sanchez said through a translator at Charlotte Sports Park.
