FIRST TIME WITHOUT THE YANKEES AT THE SHORE

Each year I head to Long Beach Island for a week and during that week we listen and watch Yankee baseball.  Not this year. Not in 2020.  But as we remain socially distant, we reflect on the different kind of baseball season we are about to embark on this summer and fall.

"Cashman said he is optimistic the foursome will be ready for Opening Day, but didn’t want to say for certain before making promises he can’t keep," reported the New York Post.  That foursome clearly is Giancarlo Stanton, Aaron Judge, James Paxton, and Aaron Hicks.  We had to suffer through a pandemic to get a healthy team, sigh.

"In 2020 there is nothing normal, nothing standard. Add in: How many players have been overtraining anticipating various restart dates? How many have been trying to set a record for food delivery apps they could use from their couch figuring there would never be a season?" reports the Post. God help us.

As we wait for baseball, we are gearing up with some beach flavored Yankee caps and drinking Yankee brews at the beach, waiting for opening day and Spring Training 2.0.
