Is It Time To Replace Gary Sanchez With Austin Romine As The ALCS Shifts To New York?

This postseason Gary Sanchez has been the starting catcher for New York.

He started in the American League Division Series against Minnesota and he has continued to be in the starting lineup in the American League Championship Series that began in Houston on Saturday and continued on Sunday.

What has he done so far this postseason?

The starting catcher has a batting average of 118. “according to https://www.mlb.com/player/gary-sanchez-596142 had seventeen at bats , one run and two hits “according to https://www.mlb.com/player/gary-sanchez-596142 . “according to https://www.mlb.com/player/gary-sanchez-596142

Austin Romine meanwhile who is the backup catcher has not seen action this postseason but should Aaron Boone think about making a change behind the plate as the American League Division Series shifts to the Bronx on Tuesday when Gerritt Cole starts for Houston.

Against Gerrit Cole who will start game three Austin Romine has a batting average of 333 with three at bats and one hit while Gary Sanchez has a batting average of 667 to go along three at bats , two hits and two runs batted in. “according to “according to http://www.espn.com/mlb/player/batvspitch/_/id/31095/gary-sanchez http://www.espn.com/mlb/player/batvspitch/_/id/29470/austin-romine

Even though Gary Sanchez has a batting average of 667 against Gerrit Cole I would give Austin Romine a shot if I was Aaron Boone because he can put the ball in play while Gary Sanchez has been striking out a lot as of late.
