Yankees Lose Velazquez, Allen & Locastro
Things like this suck, after all, guys like Andrew Velazquez, Greg Allen and a short lived Tim Locastro were a real young energy the Yankees definitely needed… but when a season ends, things like this happen and now those guys are gone. Too bad.
The New York Daily News writes:
“Shortstop Andrew Velazquez and outfielders Tim Locastro and Greg Allen were all claimed off waivers by other teams on Friday. The Angels claimed Velazquez while Locastro was picked up by the rival Boston Red Sox and Allen heads to the Pittsburgh Pirates….
Velazquez, known around the clubhouse as Squid, gained notoriety for being a kid from the Bronx who achieved a lifelong dream of playing shortstop for the Yankees. He has just 96 MLB games on his ledger, but 28 of those came this year with his boyhood club, mostly filling in when Gleyber Torres went on the injured list….
Allen got into 15 games in 2021 and, like Locastro, was part of the outfield carousel in the middle of the year. The 28-year-old put up the best numbers of anyone in this group, slashing .270/.417/.432 and making good on all five of his stolen base attempts. Allen handled all three outfield positions for the Bombers, who went 11-4 in the 15 games he played in.”
But one thing not mentioned was that when they were there, they played like their hair was on fire. They played hard and were energized and that was something we really missed on this Yankee club at times, and that was what the fans loved and wanted.
Too bad they’re gone, but we need to turn the page.
