Somewhere, Joe Girardi is angrily stewing that the Yankees waited until NOW to go out and get the type of reinforcement Giancarlo Stanton presents.
Somewhere else, Aaron Boone is bouncing off the walls with excitement — coming to terms that the reigning NL MVP is his to deploy alongside Aaron Judge, Gary Sanchez, Didi Gregorius and others.
Not a bad situation for a guy that’s never managed a day in his. Alas, them’s the brakes!
However, the question remains, what type of batting order the 33rd manager in Yankees’ history puts out come opening day, March 29 in Toronto against the Blue Jays.
