Here's what Yankees' Gary Sanchez thinks of your expectations

NEW YORK -- No pressure.

Yankees catcher Gary Sanchez said he's not worried about fulfilling anybody's expectations after his historic rookie season.

"I don't feel any pressure at all," Sanchez said Monday, via translator Marlon Abreu.

Sanchez's ridiculous production in just 53 games finished second in the American League Rookie of the Year vote last year.

The longtime prospect almost single-handedly kept the Yankees in the playoff conversation until mid-September, hitting .299 with with 20 homer and 42 RBI while earning praise for his cannon arm and improved game-calling.
