And It Begins

The first PC with the Manager - range of topics were discussed. The excitement of watching Gerritt COle throw his first bull pen to Sanchez - impressed with how animated COle is about pitching and his knowledge.The idea is to give this combo as much time together getting acquainted with each other.
Spent time in the Dominican talking with Germain who is getting his work in at our facility there but not expected to be in training camp since he can't participate until June. Andujar is putting in the work at trying to become valuable with multipositions. Gleyber returns to his natural SS - know he can do it the test is whether or not he can be an every day SS for an entire season.Catching coach Swanson has been working with Gary Sanchez on flexibility in right knee & getting lower to the ground & getting a few more low strikes. Paxton is recovering & on track following the surgery - could begin throwing in 2-3 weeks.
Questions on the sign stealing - Boone replied there comes a time when we need toput this behind and focus on the present going forward. He expects media questions for the players and has no problme with them speaking their feelings. Boone hasn't spoken to Hinch but at some point might - feelings on this are still being digested.He's not sure what the atmosphere will be like when the * come to the Bronx in September - could depend on the teams statuses at that time. Expects it to be interesting for Houston wherever they as players are angry over the sign stealing.
If nothing this first PC and glimpse of Yankees 2020, got me totally excited to get it going and see how this group gels - hoping for an less injury riddled year. Let's not allow the scandal to distract us from our goal - 9 days to that first sighting of action.
