New York Yankees can remain confident in starting pitching unit despite Paxton injury

Error 0:

All New York Yankees fans have been screaming for a big-time pitcher to sign with the team for years now, and that request was fulfilled with the signing of free agent, formerly of the Houston Astros, Gerrit Cole. About time!

The former, “could have been a player for the Yankees,” out of high school, as he was selected then in the first round draft by the Bombers, opted to go to college and played for UCLA.

He was then selected as the first overall player in the 2011 draft by the Pittsburgh Pirates.
