Brain Cashman has done it again, Mike Tauchman is just the latest in a long line of major-league hitters unveiling their full potential in the Bronx. Didi Gregorius and Aaron Hicks were the first two, then came Luke Voit and Gio Ursehla, now Tauchman joins the club.
With Giancarlo Stanton on the injured list and Clint Frazier currently in Scranton working on his defense, the rookie Tauchman has taken full advantage of consistent playing time, an opportunity not presented to him by the Colorado Rockies.
