The old saying goes, “If it ain’t broke, don’t fix it.” However, most people don’t know that that’s only half of the quote. The full quote is, “If it ain’t broke, don’t fix it, unless it’s your swing and Ken Griffey Jr. wants to hit a piñata together.”
We’ve got @TorresGleyber taking BP with Ken Griffey Jr. last night on a piñata. Pray for the league! #Yankees #ThatsMyShortstop pic.twitter.com/0ihCD43lw0

I have no idea what is going on, or why Griffey and Gleyber are together, but I love it. Griffey was one of the biggest young stars in the history of the game, and Torres has the chance to be the next. I don’t see Griffey palling around with young players much, especially when he has no tie to them, so this shows how special Gleyber is.
Slide him over to shortstop, plug him in the 3 hole and let Gleyber cook. 2020 will be a big year to show that 2019 wasn’t a fluke, and some quality time with Griffey is a great way to get started.
That’s my shortstop.
