The Yankees went through a rough patch recently. Murphy’s Law came to life in the Bronx, with seemingly everything that could go wrong going wrong. There were enough disasters just last week that we took the time the rank the worst ones.
The problems they faced are and were legitimate. Sonny Gray pitched well Tuesday night, but his season has been a disaster and has exacerbated the Yankees’ lack of depth in the rotation. The team’s offense has been left weakened without Aaron Judge and Gary Sanchez. Some of Brian Cashman’s deadline moves, such as dealing away Adam Warren and Tyler Austin, have left the Yankees thin at what are now areas of need.
