The New York Yankees have had plenty of disappointing performances this season, but two of the more seismic falls from grace have been that of middle infielder Gleyber Torres and slugging first baseman Luke Voit. Torres has been in a funk all season long, and Voit has struggled with injuries.
After hitting 38 home runs with a .278 average and 128 OPS+ in 2019, Torres has just 11 home runs, a .257 average, and an OPS+ of 96 in 161 games between 2020 and 2021. Voit led the majors in home runs with 22 during last year’s shortened season, but he has just 11 in 67 games this year while losing playing time to Anthony Rizzo.
