There’s no replacing Garrit Cole as he’s taking some time for his elbow as it’s not bouncing back quite as well as it used to. Maybe it’s because he’s a powerhouse on the mound, being Mr. Reliable or because he does a tremendous amount of wagging of his finger. Either way, the Yankees weren’t able to convince Yamamoto to play in the Bronx, which can only mean one thing. Tears for NY fans. (At least from me anyway). What kind of season start will it be without our starters, Cole & Judge who set the tone for the rest of the players? Prayer warriors be praying.
