LAKELAND, Fla. — Aaron Boone has already said he expects Gary Sanchez to catch Gerrit Cole on Opening Day, which marks a change from where things stood late last season.
But Sanchez’s recent performance at the plate in spring training has the Yankees manager sounding much like he did last year in defending his catcher. After a hot start to Grapefruit League play and some monster home runs,
Sanchez entered Tuesday batting 6-for-34 — including 1-for-his-last-21 with 10 strikeouts.
