New York Yankees Tickets

The Yankees missed the playoffs the last two years, but they’ve returned in 2015 with strong fight to get back. A veteran-heavy roster that’s been highly criticized by baseball experts in recent years has proven the experts wrong with some surprising contributions. Mark Teixeira, a notably slow starter even in his prime, got off to the hottest start of anyone. Even Alex Rodriguez got on base and displayed decent power at this stage in his career. Jacoby Ellsbury and Brett Gardner started off the year quite hot, and although Ellsbury landed on the DL, Carlos Beltran is finally healthy. After Michael Pineda and Masahiro Tanaka (who was on the DL again), the rotation isn’t very impressive. But a back end of the bullpen of Andrew Miller and Dellin Betances is completely lights out. If the Yankees can get a lead to that point, they won’t have to worry about it after that. The New York Yankees play at Yankee Stadium in the Bronx. Despite the mediocrity of the last two years, they are the global representation of the sport. With 27 championships, 40 pennants, and 51 playoff appearances, it’s hard to argue against the Yankees all time. They had made the playoffs in 17 of 18 seasons until 2013. Famous for spending money, the Yankees have been surpassed by the Dodgers in the big money department but still have a nicely overpriced roster of their own. Signing big free agent Chase Headley this offseason was just the latest splash of money thrown. The strategy could work but not for long. All of the Yankees’ nine position player starters except for shortstop Didi Gregorius are older than 30. Their pitching is younger, but not good. Time will tell if the Yankees can maintain their early success, but A-Rod and other big names ensure they’ll remain interesting. Get your Yankees tickets from Gold Coast Tickets!
