Yankees’ Aaron Boone takes great pains while raving about Joey Gallo
NY Post
Aaron Boone raved over the Yankees’ latest big-name acquisition, and the manager took pains to stress that Joey Gallo will serve as a cure to, rather than a promoter of, his team’s lack of athleticism.
“We’re incredibly excited to have two players that we feel like are really going to help us,” Boone said of Gallo and lefty reliever Joely Rodriguez, before the Yankees concluded their series with the Rays at Tropicana Field. “Obviously the talk of Joey Gallo, look, I’m thrilled he’s coming to join the fold. This is obviously a tremendous player. “Hopefully people are talking about what a tremendous all-around player we’re getting. A really good athlete. A guy that runs the bases, has some speed. That’s a really good defender in the outfield. And obviously the tremendous patience, the power that he has.”More Related News
