Yankees catcher Gary Sanchez was managed by Joe Girardi from his rookie season in 2016 through last season. Sanchez had two passed balls in the 8-2 loss to the Oakland A’s on Wednesday, September 5, 2018 (9/5/18). Luis Severino had two wild pitches with Sanchez behind the plate.
What does Gary Sanchez’s former manager make of last night in Oakland?
A former catcher, Girardi now works as an MLB Network Insider and he pinpointed what Sanchez is doing wrong Thursday during an appearance on “High Heat.”
Watch the video above to hear Girardi discuss Sanchez’s problems and predict whether the issues can be corrected this season.
Girardi, by the way, didn’t mention why these problems weren’t fixed when he was managing Sanchez.
One of the biggest stories of the Yankees’ 2018 regular season was Girardi criticizing Sanchez’s catching after a poor showing.
Girardi was let go by the Yankees after the season when his contract expired and it’s believed his public criticism of Sanchez contributed to GM Brian Cashman’s decision to change managers.
Aaron Boone was hired as Girardi’s successor with no managing or coaching experience and thus far has led the Yankees to an 87-53 record that is tied for the second-best in the majors.
