A home run here, a home run there, New York Yankees veteran infielder Troy Tulowitzki has started off his tenure with the Bombers in impressive form. Against his former team the Toronto Blue Jays, Tulo smacked an opposite-field solo shot in his first at-bat with his new club.
Several days later, the shortstop hit a three-run blast that drove in Aaron Judge and Giancarlo Stanton. His power has been an unexpected surprise thus far in spring training, and while the regular season is a far different challenge, he’s shown flashes of his former self.
Tulowitzki sat out all of 2018 on the injury list but has returned fully healthy and ready to act as the stopgap for Didi Gregorius at shortstop.
