Adam Ottavino saw Troy Tulowitzki up close when the shortstop was still one of the premier offensive players in the game, while they played together in Colorado from 2012-15. In both players’ first season with the Yankees, Ottavino is hoping to see a similar version of Tulowitzki in The Bronx.
“I don’t doubt him, because I know what he’s capable of,” Ottavino said. “He looked good in the spring, definitely healthy. A player like him is such a rare talent. He’s a fun guy to watch when he’s clicking right. I hope to watch that again.
