A Horrendous Start to the Yankees 2016 Season

The New York Yankees third baseman, Chase Headley, is coming off his second failed season in the past three seasons. He's hitting .156 with a .156 slugging percentage, so it's only human nature to replace him. This is normally what a bad team does in this particular situation, however, if you look at the Yankees schedule, as well as its bench, and then decide if that utility infielder, Ronald Torreyes, picked up on a waiver claim in February is just what this lineup needs, by all means, what are they waiting for.

The Yankees are currently an aging team, and have lost five consecutive games and presently 8-15, a record that puts them on pace to go to go 56-106. Their April winning percentage puts them on the third lowest by a Yankees team in well over a hundred years, in addition to playing the worst twenty-games to begin a season in a particular month to start a season. Of the six Yankees teams that had a sub -400 winning percentage at the outset of the season, some players rebounded for the most part, the 1984 Yankees had the best record in baseball in the second half; the 1985 team won 97 games, and the 2007 team won 94 - but just one made the postseason, where they were promptly eliminated.
