Gerrit Cole and his pregnant wife Amy are ready to meet their new teammate.
Amy went to Instagram on Saturday and asked her nearly 55,000 followers which important life event will take place first: the birth of the couple’s first child or the start of spring training.
“Maturity is in 3 days. Baseball starts in 4 days. Which one will be here first? “Amy posted next to a pair of Yankees booties with Cole’s number on the back.
On Sunday morning, 58 percent of Amy’s followers believed their baby would arrive first, while the other 42 percent voted for baseball.
Spring training is due to start on Wednesday in the Bronx before the shortened 60-game season due to the coronavirus crisis. Cole is expected to face the Yankees against the Washington Nationals in the country’s capital on the opening day of next month.
Shortly after Cole signed a $ 324 million nine-year deal with the Yankees, he and Amy announced in January that they were expecting it.
Amy, a former pitcher at UCLA, has kept her husband sharp on the hill amid the global pandemic.
The Coles have been married since 2016.
