In his two weeks as a Yankee, Zach Britton has yet to provide the team with much impact. Well, he’s having an impact, just in the wrong direction. Britton has allowed a run in four of his eight appearances as a Yankee, including in three of the last four. He’s allowed six runs and put 17 runners on base in 7.1 innings. Bad. Bad bad bad.
Monday against the Mets, Britton’s most recent outing, was kinda dumb. He faced seven batters, struck out one, hit one, and got five ground balls. Only two of the five ground balls left the infield and Britton still wound up getting charged with a run when Gleyber Torres flubbed the transfer on a double play pivot.
