Aaron Boone On Luke Voit: 'He's Goit A Big Year Ahead'

Luke Voit was thoroughly enjoying his visit to the hitters’ paradise that is London’s Olympic Stadium last June, chugging into second base with his fourth hit -- and third double -- of an afternoon contest against the Red Sox. During that 180-foot dash, he felt something snap in his lower half, but the Yankees slugger had no idea of the damage done that day.

Rejuvenated Luke Voit Ramps Up 'Elite' Yankees Hype

Bilateral core surgery in late October wasn’t optional for Luke Voit, who suffered an abdominal strain in late June that landed him on the injured list until mid-July. Voit returned to the shelf July 31 and missed almost a month with a sports hernia.

The Cardinals Devil Magic Ran Out

It’s not surprising that the Cardinals didn’t go all the way. Underdogs often fall short even if they’re fueled by devil magic. Of the ten teams to make it to the postseason, the Cardinals were arguably the least talented. St. Louis may have come out on top of the NL Central scrum, but they didn’t compare to some of the other division winners and even some of the Wild Card teams. At 91 wins, the Cardinals had the lowest win total in the tournament, and their base runs record put them and the Braves at 90-72, five games behind the Nationals and a full 20 wins worse than the Dodgers.

Luke Voit 'Trying Everything' To Make Yankees Playoff Roster

Luke Voit insists his sick bat isn’t connected to the hernia that landed him on the injured list from July 31 to Aug. 29, but the slump has put the first baseman’s chances of being on the Yankees’ ALDS roster in peril.
