Follow UsEmbracing the spirit of a Yankees fan requires a blend of steady optimism and a dash of realism, especially as Opening Day draws near. It’s not every season that we’re graced with the spectacle of the league’s premier sluggers, masters of the outfield, showcasing their prowess side by side.
