TAMPA — Troy Tulowitzki looked good enough during a December workout that the Yankees signed him and gave him a no-trade clause. And the 34-year-old has impressed the team in spring training’s early going, as he attempts to resuscitate his career following two injury-plagued seasons in Toronto.
But just like everyone else, Tulowitzki knows there’s only one way to show he’s still a quality player.
“I’m just waiting for games and they’re coming soon,’’ Tulowitzki said Tuesday at George M. Steinbrenner Field. “That’s what I need and I’m excited for it.”
The Yankees open their Grapefruit League schedule Saturday in Fort Myers against the Red Sox, but Aaron Boone has said the plan is to treat Tulowitzki with caution, since he missed all of 2018 for the Blue Jays following surgery to remove bone spurs from both heels.
