Yankees’ Caballero targeted by MLB for crackdown on plate routine of waiting to engage pitcher
“They’re just picking on me.”Caballero was acquired from Tampa Bay last July 31 and Yankees manager Aaron Boone acknowledged his thoughts on the utilityman spun 180 degrees with the swap.“He’s one of those guys I would yell at from the dugout,” Boone said Wednesday morning. Now I like him because he’s a good player and he’s on our side. But, yeah, we’ve had a laugh about that.”During a June 14 game at Toronto, Caballero twice was deliberate in raising his head until eight seconds remained on the pitch clock, leading to a warning by plate umpire Steven Jaschinsk.
