Who’s ready for a rant?
This one has to be recorded in Bronx Pinstripes history. Let me preface this piece before I lean into it. My opinion is obviously bias. I’m a Yankees fan. Everyone reading this article is probably a Yankees fan. It sucks that 2017 and 2018 didn’t go our way. Of course the Yankees shouldn’t be handed the Commissioner’s Trophy just because the Astros and Red Sox cheated during those respective season.
This isn’t about the Yankees though. This is about the integrity of the game as we know it. When it came time to defend that integrity, Rob Manfred handled it poorly.
