The old baseball mantra cautions against fully buying into what you see in spring training or September. But Aaron Boone disagrees.
TORONTO — The old baseball mantra cautions against fully buying into what you see in spring training or September.
Of the Yankees’ nine series this month, five are against teams fighting for playoff spots, including the one they started on Tuesday at Rogers Centre against the Blue Jays. Then again, the Yankees were playing for plenty last September when it looked like Oswaldo Cabrera was primed to play a key role in 2023 and Oswald Peraza was setting himself up to be their starting shortstop — neither of which ended up coming to fruition.
“Of course you’ve got to take it all in and a grain of salt with certain things,” Boone said. “But if you’re telling me it doesn’t matter, OK. I think that’s probably just an old baseballism. Of course you’re evaluating all things. You’re evaluating the season — in young players’ case, the minor league season they’ve put together.
