It remains to be seen whether big changes are in store for the Yankees next season, but as far as Joe Girardi is concerned, that’s not necessary for the Bombers to take the next step.
Three days after his team was eliminated in the wild card game, Girardi met the media at Yankee Stadium for more than 30 minutes Friday morning to discuss the surprising season, the abrupt ending and what lies ahead for the franchise.
“I think a lot of those questions we had going into spring training were answered and I think we saw improvement out of players during the course of the season,” Girardi said, citing Didi Gregorius and Luis Severino among others.
