The Yankees and DJ LeMahieu found their level

At long last. The Yankees made us wait over three months, but a full quarter of a year since we saw them walk off the Petco Park field in anguish, they gave their fans something to smile about. DJ LeMahieu will be a Yankee again, and he just might close out his career in pinstripes after re-signing on a six-year, $90-million deal.

This concludes a long staredown between the Bombers and LeMahieu, a battle in which each side clearly knew they needed each other. At the end of the day, they found their level.
