Didi Gregorius, Aaron Judge, and Gary Sanchez all went down and got replaced by the likes of Kyle Higashioka, Austin Romine, Shane Robinson and Ronald Torreyes. Take in this Pedro quote one more time and you just realize he’s wrong about these Yankees. How they managed to get 17 wins in August with glaring holes in the lineup was an achievement in itself.
The Yankees don’t seem to have the energy of a winning team. I understand some key players are injured, but they don’t seem to be hustling out there.
I don’t want this to seem like an insult to Austin Romine because he stepped up.
