Me and my friends and family used to text and call every day about the team and the games but the past couple years those conversations have dried up. Not only wasn’t it a good team, but it seemed to be a team without a direction. Now? Even if they’re a just .500 team, it’s at least fun to watch again. and I think we can be back in contention as soon as next season.
Our starting lineup for 2017?
CF Ellsbury
SS Didi
1B Bird
RF Judge
C Sanchez
LF Frazier
DH Austin
3B Headley
2B Castro

That has the potential to be one of the best lineups in baseball and I’m ready to embrace this next era of the Yankees. I’ve already watched more games this week than I have all season and I will be going to a lot more games now.

Kudos to Cashman for rebuilding this lineup so quickly into a force. Now the next challenge is to try to get a rotation that can give these guys a chance.
