Every player wants to walk off the spring training fields and jump-start their season the way Didi Gregorius did last year. By the end of April 2018, Gregorius was slashing .327/.421/.735 and was on pace for 58 long balls. Unfortunately, the 2019 Yankees don’t have the luxury of riding another hot start from Gregorius. With a flurry of early injuries, they’re going to need standout performances from a handful of players that have enjoyed success out of the gate in previous seasons. These are the players with a track record of success before the dog days of summer roll around.
