Gleyber Torres Flies Under the Radar
Young Yankees Second Baseman Making Quiet Impact
Torres' Consistent Play Has Helped Yankees Stay Afloat
For much of the first two months of the season, it's been easy for Gleyber Torres to fly under the radar. While teammates Aaron Judge and Giancarlo Stanton have grabbed headlines with their power hitting, Torres has quietly gone about his business, providing a steady presence at second base and contributing at the plate.
Torres is hitting .289 with four home runs and 22 RBIs in 52 games this season. He's also drawn 26 walks and has an on-base percentage of .372. His defense has been solid as well, with just three errors in 49 games at second base.
Torres' consistent play has helped the Yankees stay afloat in the AL East. The team is 32-20 this season, but they've been without Judge and Stanton for extended periods due to injuries. Torres has stepped up in their absence, providing a spark at the top of the lineup.
Torres is still just 22 years old, but he's already shown that he has the potential to be a star. He's a talented hitter with a good eye at the plate, and he's also a solid defender. If he continues to develop, he could be one of the best players in the game.
For now, Torres is content to fly under the radar. He's not looking for attention, he's just focused on helping the Yankees win. And if he keeps playing the way he has been, he'll eventually get the recognition he deserves.
