For being the big trade deadline splash back in July, Joey Gallo really was more like a belly flop than anything else. After a terrific start to the season in Texas, the big outfielder was dealt to the Yankees, a team with a middling offense struggling for a playoff spot. Gallo’s own offensive output was middling to bad, and aesthetically bad at that, and while his defense is always terrific, the Yankees are going to need more out of him this season.
