MLB opened voting today for the 2020 all-MLB team. There are pre-determined finalists at each position, and four New York Yankees made the cut. Gerrit Cole, Luke Voit, DJ LeMahieu, and Gio Urshela are all finalists at their respective positions.

All of those guys definitely deserve consideration. I wouldn’t really say any Yankees got snubbed, either. Maybe Zack Britton could’ve been considered? Regardless, I’m stoked for these four.
Cole lived up to the hype in his first season in New York. He battled through a stretch of a few mediocre starts to finish the season and playoffs on a dominant note.

Voit fought through his “foot stuff” to be a constant in the middle of a lineup ravaged by injury. He led all of baseball in home runs, an impressive feat no matter the season length.

Urshela kept the momentum from his breakout season in 2019 going. Going from a glove-first guy who was cut by two teams to an everyday player posting a .858 OPS is no small feat.
GIO URSHELA LAUNCHED THE BALL AND THEN HIS BAT 😳

As for LeMahieu, he’s just unbelievable. He became the first player to ever win a batting title in both leagues. I pray that the Yankees re-sign this man.
Is DJ your MVP?
LeMahieu was clutch as the @Yankees won their 9th straight.
