The Yankees issued 71 full postseason shares this season, the most of any playoff team — a year after they were roundly criticized for handing out just 45 full shares, the fewest of any playoff team.
The news, released by MLB on Tuesday, wasn’t all that surprising, because Zack Britton, who helped run this year’s shares meeting on Sept. 20, said the team made sure there was no repeat of the 2018 debacle.
“It was good. We took care of people. It was my first one here, and it went really good,” Britton said at the time.
