Hello… Gleyber Says No to Potential HR Derby Invite

Good morning Yankees family and welcome to the weekend, officially. It’s Saturday, and I hope you all have a great weekend planned ahead. Speaking of planning, no one has asked him yet but Gleyber Torres knows what he would say if the league were to ask him to participate in the Home Run Derby here in 2018. No!

Torres told the New York Post on Wednesday that he would pass if asked to do the Home Run Derby because “I’m not a home run hitter, I’m a contact hitter.” Well you could have fooled me, Gleyber, but I agree with your decision nonetheless. Torres has 14 home runs in his first 50 games of his MLB career.

FYI Aaron Judge has also stated that he will not be back to defend his crown, also a wise decision by a Yankees star if you ask me.

And a special good morning to the most beautiful woman on this planet, the woman that I go to bed with every night and the woman that I wake up to every single morning. I love you Kari.
