Didi Gregorius is coming off the best season of his MLB career, and the Yankees shortstop recently returned to his baseball roots in Curacao for offseason training.
Gregorius' family moved to the Caribbean island when he was about 5 years old, and he went to the same high school as Angels shortstop Andrelton Simmons. Gregorius also played high-school baseball against Orioles second baseman Jonathan Schoop.
"The island's not big," Gregorius said, "so you run into everybody a lot."
