Joey Gallo
Joey Gallo, the struggling outfielder, is unlikely to stay in the Bronx for long and for him, a change of scenery could be beneficial. The Yankees are finally about to release Joey Gallo, and we’re hearing he’s looking forward to a fresh start outside of New York. Gallo is hoping to join the San Diego Padres. A.J. Preller, the general manager of the San Diego Padres, was a Texas Rangers executive when Gallo was a young player in the organization.
He attempted to trade for the slugger last summer before the Yankees landed him for four prospects. Gallo appears to believe that as a member of the small-market Padres, he can once again become one of the game’s top power hitters. Brendan Kuty of NJ Advance Media spoke with a source about where the Yankees intend to send Joey Gallo. The person mentioned places like Milwaukee, San Diego, Tampa and Texas, where “there’s no pressure.” The person spoke on the condition of anonymity because he wasn’t authorized to speak publicly.
“As the going gets tough, the tough get going” Joey Gallo’s journey beyond the Bronx
Gallo’s streak of futility in the Bronx continued Thursday night, when he struck out in all three at-bats in a 1-0 win over the Royals at Yankee Stadium. His batting average fell to.159, and his OPS dropped to.621. In his last 28 games, he’s hit.084 (6-for-71).
“It’s been tough on Joey,” Boone said. “It’s been a tough road for him since coming over here where he just hasn’t found that traction. There’s no question in my mind that there’s still great baseball ahead for him, whether that’s immediately or in years to come.”
