Throughout the year, we got plenty of questions submitted to our Yankees mailbag. I traditionally answer about three to four of them in each edition, leaving many waiting in the wings. Sometimes this is because the question is similar to another one that did get answered, sometimes it’s because the question requires a deeper dive than can be done in time and would be better served as its own article — and sometimes the question is just a hot take or too vague to respond to.
Everything becomes clearer with the benefit of hindsight, and the concerns of Yankees fans throughout the year is no exception.
