In the third round of the 2005 Major League Baseball Draft, the New York Yankees selected centerfielder Brett Gardner 109th overall out of the College of Charleston. Fifteen years later, Gardner could very well be playing his final season in the Bronx.
The longest-tenured Yankee and last remaining player from the 2009 World Series championship team, Gardner signed a one-year, $12.5 million contract in December with a club option for 2021. At 36 years old, 2020 could very well be his 13th and last year in Pinstripes as he fills a void in the outfield because of injuries.
