Most Yankees fans agree that the team did very well in 2018 and for good reason. The team went 100-62, and it established an all-time home run record by hitting 267 balls out of the yard. Yankee batters drove in 821 RBIs, just eight behind the Boston Red Sox who were 108-54.
The Yanks accomplished these feats and others while having a number of key players on the disabled list for significant lengths of time. Jordan Montgomery, the club’s fifth starter, went out in early May during the 2018 season and was forced to have Tommy John surgery in early June.
