Yankees recall RHP Ronald Herrera from Double-A Trenton prior to Wednesday’s game

By -
After CC Sabathia’s unfortunate injury news, the Yankees decided to call up another arm to be apart of the big league staff. Rather than their typical Scranton Shuttle move, they chose to recall a RHP from AA Trenton named Ronald Herrera.

Herrera was acquired by the Yankees prior to the 2016 season from the San Diego Padres in the trade that shipped infielder Jose Pirela out west.

The 22-year-old deservedly earned his call up by posting videogame-like numbers for the Thunder. Working primarily as a starter, Herrera posted a 7-0 record with a miniscule 1.07 ERA to begin his 2017 campaign. Herrera may be used as a spot starter for Sabathia’s next turn in the rotation or could aid the Yankees tonight after Sabathia only was able to give the Yankees four innings before his injury forced Girardi to turn to his relievers.

 UPDATE D 11/18/15 We’ve all heard it: The Yankees aren’t likely to be big spenders this offseason. Hearing this makes me chuckle as the Yankees have the dollars to field a $500 million pay roll if they wanted to, but their dedication to winning just hasn’t been there since the passing of good ole’ George. Sure little rumors have serviced here or there about them maybe pursuing Zach Greinke who has recently opted out of his contract with the Los Angeles Dodgers, but that move reeks of the move CC Sabathia pulled in opting out of his contract with the Yankees a few years back to simply restructure his contract and make a better payday.   However, instances like CC Sabathia and Masahiro Tanaka are why I believe the Yankees aren’t going to shell out big money and a long term contract for a big name starter this year.

No team in baseball history has a story quite like the Yankees. 27 times they’ve found baseball Nirvana which is 16 more than the next closest team (Cardinals). 40 times have the Yankees won the American League, and that is also a major league record. The franchise won four straight championships from 1936-1939 and five straight from 1949-1953, a task no other team has ever accomplished. With all this sustained success, the team has seen some of the greatest players in league history proudly call the Bronx home. Together the Yankees could field multiple All-Star teams with their collective legends, but in this article, I’m going to try and put together a team of legends that I think would be absolutely unbeatable.   Photo Credit: Creative Commons
