Although It’s Only His First Season, Should The New York Yankees Be Concerned With Gerrit Cole?

When the start of the 2020 season commenced in late July, the New York Yankees entered as the strong favorites to not only win their division, but at the very least, make yet another World Series appearance. At the time, this was understandably so; the Yankees reemerged over the last three years as the mighty franchise that they’re notoriously known for being, reaching 100 wins in back-to-back seasons and doing so with utter power and dominance. Barring an incredible amount of hype as is, this newly stamped status was elevated to an even higher level when the Yankees decided to pull out a 9-year, $324 million-dollar contract to sign superstar ace, Gerrit Cole in the typical, grandiose Yankees style.
