Spring training is in full swing, almost all of the major free agents have signed, and we can now turn our attention to action on the field instead of off it. The top winter maneuver on the Yankees’ part was trading top pitching prospect Justus Sheffield for James Paxton, whose s on-field work I want to delve into today.
I’ve followed Paxton for a long time, mostly because of his nationality. There are few enough Canadians in the majors that I like to keep tabs on them all, and he is no exception.
