It turns out one of the best catchers the game has ever seen doesn’t think highly of New York Yankees’ backstop Gary Sanchez at the moment.
Ivan Rodriguez, who, don’t forget, played a half-season with the Yankees, had some out-of-nowhere critical comments about Sanchez just when the discourse surrounding the controversial slugger managed to slow down.
But now we’re back in the Gary hamster wheel and we really don’t like the sound of this. Usually, you’d tune out any nonsensical noise that’s only serving to be a distraction, but it’s not exactly easy to do that when a Hall of Famer is making statements like this.
