There are a lot of “things” this New York Yankees team lacks at the moment. And we really don’t want to go down the list.
One aspect of their floundering play that’s perhaps the most imperative to improve is the defense. If the Yankees aren’t scoring runs, they cannot afford to be making errors or letting the opposition take free bases. And it’s been happening all too often.
For some reason, manager Aaron Boone and the rest of the organization opts against punishing players (except for Clint Frazier) when it comes to lackluster play.
