Where were you in 1992? It’s been 29 years since the New York Yankees’ last sub-.500 season. George H.W. Bush lost his reelection bid to Bill Clinton. Mortal Kombat and Aladdin debuted. Hurricane Andrew tore apart South Florida. Jay Leno took over for Johnny Carson on The Tonight Show. Derek Jeter graduated high school and became the sixth overall pick in the MLB draft (current Yankees third base coach Phil Nevin was first).
Since then, the Yankees have only been sellers at the trade deadline once. By the end of July 2016, they were 52-52.
