Yankees Editorial: Maybe Going the Other Way will help Stephen Drew?

New York Yankees infield-utility man Stephen Drew has struggled mightily at the plate since the start of the 2015 season. He currently has just 20 hits in 113 at-bats, giving him a .177 batting average. Tie that in to his .264 OBP and .345 slugging percentage, and you start to question why the Yankees continue to start him on an every day basis, which you can read about (here.)

Alas, Stephen Drew is now going to try and take a page out of the playbook of teammates Brett Gardner and Jacoby Ellsbury in an attempt to get his average above the Mendoza line.
