Before the coronavirus pandemic began to shutdown America and the baseball world, J.A. Happ was one of the biggest stories of the New York Yankees‘ spring.
After a dreadful 2019 campaign, Happ came into camp with something to prove. The wily veteran looked like he returned to form when he took the mound in four games down in Tampa.
Happ pitched 13 innings with a 1.38 ERA with 16 strikeouts. Of course, spring training stats mean nothing once the season starts but it looked like an offseason full of work paid off for the 37-year-old.
