Lifelong New York Yankees’ fan Zack Granite hopes to fulfill his dream

Error 0:

On November 22, the New York Yankees signed outfielder Zack Granite to a minor league contract with an invitation to spring training. He had spent all 2019 at Triple-A in the Texas Rangers’ organization and hit .290/.331/.375 with three homers and 25 stolen bases.

At first, the Yankees’ intention was for the 27-year-old speedster, who once was a heralded prospect with the Minnesota Twins, to offer depth at the three outfield positions. However, due to the COVID-19 outbreak, it isn’t a given that he ever plays for the team, considering that the players at his positions will likely be healthy by the time the season starts.
