Remember when the Yankees broke down the Gerrit Cole trade talks because they refused to budge on including Miguel Andujar? I admit at the time I disagreed with that decision. I desperately wanted Cole, and thought Andujar would best serve the team as a trade chip. He had an impressive cup of coffee in 2017, but he seemed like a victim to the numbers’ crunch. With their cache of infield prospects, the Yankees had to trade someone, right? It might as well be Andujar, who could fetch a quality arm.
Allow me to apologize for my shortsightedness.
