SPEEDSTER TIM LOCASTRO IS BACK GIVING US RELIEF FROM AIR-SWING GALLO


Thank god for Tim Locastro.  A guy with less popularity than a Joey Gallo, but more productivity. In reality... this is a good thing.  For me personality I think it means, more Locastro... less Gallo.

"The Yankees called up Tim Locastro in another sign that the team might be ready to move on from the struggling Joey Gallo...

...they turned to Locastro, a lefty hitter like Gallo.

“(With) that crunch in who’s available where fresh arms and things like that,” manager Aaron Boone said, “Just felt like he could be a little bit of that depth in a bench role here going into the end of the break.”

One thing is inaccurate and shame on NJ.com for making this mistake. Tim Locastro is a righty hitter, not lefty.  But that being said, the keyword here is DEPTH.  Tim is a gamer, scrappy. Sure, he won't hit home runs all the time, but look at Gallo these days... he doesn't do crap.  Speed, energy, scrappiness and a solid defender is something that Locastro offers... and already it's better than Joey Gallo.

Nice move Yanks.
