This is not, I’m sorry to say, Paul O’Neill fans, a post about the Yankees making themselves in number 21’s image. This is not a post about the Yankees being gritty and gutty and all those other things. This is about taking a cue from a team 2,906 miles away that has been dominating its sport for years, and shows few signs of stopping.
I’d love to see the Yankees build a superteam this offseason just to see how that plays out over 162 games. Very intriguing and obviously risky but that would be something special for baseball.
