Three biggest surprises of the Yankees’ regular season

The regular season is over! Now we get to the fun part: the postseason. Before the Yankees take on the Twins in the ALDS, let’s do some reflecting on the wild ride that was the 162 games that just took place. Here’s this week’s FanPost Friday prompt:

What were the three biggest surprises of the Yankees’ regular season?

There is plenty to choose from here, whether it’s the specific minor league players who stepped up, the success that the team found despite all of the injuries, or decisions made near the trade deadline. I would like to take this opportunity to personally apologize to DJ LeMahieu for being so opposed to that deal over the offseason. Head over to the FanPost section and share your answer with us. We’ll feature one of the submissions on the front page on Friday.

How will we select which FanPosts to promote to the front page? Some of it will be subjective. If you follow our tips, you should find yourself on the right track. We will also be looking for FanPosts with comments and recommendations. Depending on the number of responses we get, receiving some recs on your post could separate your FanPost from the crowd. Additionally, if your post has a number of comments then it may have sparked some worthwhile discussions. These are just a few things we’ll be looking for when we decide which post(s) to promote on the front page. We are always on the lookout for new talent, and the FanPost section can be a great way to get our attention.

Submit your answer in the FanPost section before Friday (October 4) for your post to be considered.
