Injuries continue to be the downfall of most professional athletes, and serious ones plagued the New York Yankees during the 2019 season. With starting third baseman Miguel Andujar suffering a torn Labrum and pitcher Jordan Montgomery recovering from Tommy John surgery, the pair missed out on essential experience in a 103-win season.
The Yankees’ record proves to manager Aaron Boone that they’re capable of succeeding without several starters, which is ultimately bad news for injured players. Andujar will start the 2020 campaign in a reserve role. Boone has already made it apparent that Miggy will have to earn his spot on the team, as he will test his abilities in left field and at first base during spring training.
