It may not be Canada, but it seems that James Paxton has finally found his home in the Bronx with the New York Yankees.
Big Maple was a target for the Bronx Bombers this offseason to help bolster their rotation. In fact, he’s been on their radar far before the 2018 season. But the Yankees nailed him down in a trade on Nov. 19, 2018, and brought the lefty on board for their 28th title push.
While Paxton’s debut as a Yankee was less than stellar, he is picking it up at the perfect time for this Yankees team.
