Former Colorado Rockies shortstop Troy Tulowitzki is apparently heading to the Big Apple, joining the New York Yankees on a league minimum deal. Released by the Toronto Blue Jays earlier in the offseason, the 34-year-old Tulowitzki will see if he can remain healthy while remaining in the American League East.
Tulo was a big fan of Derek Jeter‘s style of play and will now share wearing the other kind of pinstripes (besides the purple ones) with the player he modeled much of his playing style after. If he stays healthy, he will get a chance to not only play against the Blue Jays this season, but also the Rockies, who visit the Bronx from July 19-21.
