It took way longer than it should’ve, but the Yankees finally cut ties with third baseman Josh Donaldson nearly a month ago. Shortly after, the Milwaukee Brewers decided to sign him to a minor-league deal.
That happened a week before the Brewers were supposed to play the Yankees in the Bronx. It set up a potential homecoming for Donaldson, but it unfortunately didn’t happen because he was still in Triple-A at the time.
Donaldson has put together a solid MLB career. However, he also comes with a reputation for not exactly being a terrific clubhouse presence.
