This is the story of the New York Incas 3x. When they decided to trade for Seth Louis Cardinal, Luke Boyd. Again the 3x. I didn't feel it. I felt like I got flicked by a finger. I don't know. I was speechless. I was just, I don't know. It's happy young business. I felt like normal bad. I don't know. I'm the coolest thing in the world, especially getting that ovation I got. It's going to be some one member forever. I'm used to playing in front of 5,000 people and all of a sudden it's 43,000 people. But as I remember sitting in and stands the little kid, you know, thinking the same thing. You know, wait for this opportunity. My whole life. Dream came true. The pitch is swung onto the high fly ball. The center field. This is going to go for Luke Boyd's first race with my homeroom. I'm going around the innovations, especially getting that push. It's the best feeling in the world. You know, I got some, it's the most important people. Like I wish that every little kid could, you know, the dream is to do something like that. You know, especially in front of their home crowd and then to get the curtain called. Luke Boyd was traded by the Cardinals at the August trade that line last year after only 11 at bats in 2018. It just did it seem like he was going to have a role on the Cardinals. So the team opted to send them to New York. The Yankees announcing a trade they have acquired first basement Luke Boyd and some international siding bonus pool money from the Cardinals in exchange for Chiefs and Shrieve and Javari Gallegos and Jack some fans will look at the trade and say, well, Shrieve's been a big part of that bullpen for the past couple of years. Gallegos they've seen them on several occasions. This year pitching pretty well. There's a reason the deal had to be made. This is Felix from m1news.com and this is the biography of Yankees First Basement Luke Boyd. Boyd was born on February 13th, 1991 in Wildwood, Missouri. Boyd attended Lafayette High School in Wildwood, Missouri. He played for Lafayette's baseball team as a first baseman and third baseman in his first three years and as a catcher in the senior year. He also played for his high school's football team as a fullback and middle linebacker. Boyd was an excellent football player. He received plenty of interest from NCAA division one teams but a shoulder injury ended his football career and that's when the Kansas City Royals took notice and selected Boyd in the 32nd round of the 2009 Major League Baseball Drift. Boyd did not sign instead Boyd attended Missouri State University where he played college baseball for the Missouri State Bears. After a senior year, the St. Louis corridor selected Boyd in a 22nd round of the 2013 M.O.B. Drift. After signing, Boyd started his career as a catcher and made his professional debut with the state college spikes of the class A short season New York Penn League. Boyd spent the four year 2013 playing there, batting 242 with two home runs and 16 RBI's. In 46 games played. He then moved to first base in 2014 and played that season with the Palm Beach Cardinals of the class A advanced Florida State League where he batted 276 with nine home runs and 51 RBI's. In 93 games. It's quite an honor. I mean there's a lot of good guys in this league and to get picked out of all those guys. It's pretty cool. I'm really excited to go and kind of learn from these guys and you know what they bring the table day in and day out you know how they go about it you know what I can take from that. He then returned to Palm Beach in 2015. He hit for batting average of 273 with 11 home runs and 77 RBI's in the 130 games. Boyd spent 2016 with the Springfield Portals of the class AA where he hit 297 with 19 home runs and 74 RBI's. In a total of 134 games. Boyd started 2017 with the Memphis Redbirds of the class AAA Pacific Coast League. Finally, Luke Boyd gets his shot. On June 25, 2017, the Cardinals promoted Boyd to the Major League's. In 70 games with the Redbirds, prior to his promotion, he was batting 32 with 12 home runs and 48 runs at it. Boyd debuted against the Pittsburgh Pirates on the same night of his follow and got on base after being hit by a pitch. Boyd started the next day against the Cincinnati Reds and doubled off of Austin Bryce for his first Major League hit in 8-8-2-1. On July 3rd, he hit his first Major League home run. On July 27th, 2018, the Cardinals traded Boyd along with bonus bull money to the New York Yankees for chasing street and Giovanni Gallagos. After the struggles of Greg Bird, Boyd took over the Yankee's starting first baseman job. He hit his 10th home run for the Yankee's on September 20th, becoming the 12th player on the Yankees to hit 10 home runs during 2018. When Boyd reached the 10th home remark, the Yankee set a new Major League team record for most players on one team with 10 or more home runs and a season. Boyd was named American League's Ayo Flare of the Week on October 1st after heading 4-58 with three home runs and eight runs at it end. Luke Boyd finished the season batting 33-3 with 14 home runs, 33 RBIs and an OPS of 1,095. In only 39 games for the New York Yankees, and Boyd hasn't looked back since. Boyd just had a recent street broken up where he reached base safely in 42 games. And so far this season, Luke Boyd continues to rank. In just 44 games, Boyd has hit 11 home runs with 34 RBIs, 40 hits and an OPS of 861. Boyd clearly didn't get shot with the court. There was no room for him at birth base in a court no uniform. Because Matt Corpenter, not even a bank throw was a thought with younger guys in an optimal game. So he was traded. It turned out to be just the opportunity Boyd was looking for. As the presence of the DH in the L helped Boyd get the hat badge he was lacking. There's no question that the New York Yankees pulled a heist on a court. But do the court know see it that way? No. They didn't have the flexibility and simply Luke Boyd couldn't get the hat badge to grow and improve as a player. But as of now, Boyd is proving what the Yankees analytical staff is capable of. He's a perfect exam.
