The most exciting news on Saturday night wasn’t the New York Yankees demolishing the Chicago White Sox to stop a potential sweep in its tracks, it was the trade for slugger, Edwin Encarnacion.
The Mariners star first baseman, who is currently leading the American League with 21 home runs, will join the ranks of the Bombers. Adding yet another power-hitter to the lineup will certainly help the Yankees put runs on the board – they’re clearly following a home run agenda.
With both Aaron Judge and Giancarlo Stanton nearing a return, the lineup will be one of the most intimidating in baseball.
