The meteoric rise of the new generation of superstar Yankees, including Aaron Judge, Gary Sanchez, Giancarlo Stanton, Gleyber Torres, and Luis Severino--from the "inside baseball" strategy in assembling the roster, their fascinating paths to Yankee Stadium, and a mission to hoist the franchise's twenty-eighth World Series championship trophy. </b> <p/>Derek Jeter and the "Core Four" have passed the torch to a new generation of Yankees superstars--featuring Aaron Judge, Gary Sanchez, Luis Severino, and Gleyber Torres--who have powered through the minors to become stars on baseball's biggest stage. Joined by reigning National League MVP Giancarlo Stanton, this thrilling group is poised to chase championship titles for years to come. <p/> <i>The Baby Bombers</i> details the inside-baseball strategy of the Yankees' pivot to a younger, more exciting roster, the players' fascinating paths to Yankee Stadium, their memorable 2017 and 2018 playoff runs, their amazing assaults on the record books, and a unified mission to hoist the franchise's twenty-eighth World Series trophy. <p/> Through new, in-depth interviews, veteran reporter Bryan Hoch fleshes out the transition from Jeter to Judge, scoring behind-the-scenes insights from general manager Brian Cashman, former manager Joe Girardi, executives and scouts, members of the current roster, opponents, and Yankees legends of the past. <p/> Winning baseball in the Bronx has resumed with postseason hero Aaron Boone in the manager's chair, aiming to steer the franchise to its forty-first World Series appearance. Featuring nearly fifty photographs, <i>The Baby Bombers</i> tracks the rise of today's Yankees from fresh-faced rookies into a group that is destined for pinstriped greatness.<p/><br></br><p><b> Review Quotes </b></p></br></br><br>"A number of books likely will be written about the Yankees' renaissance, but Bryan Hoch has beaten everyone to the punch with <i>The Baby Bombers, </i> a compelling look at the team's past, present, and future.
