The New York Yankees have already made one of their biggest offseason decisions when they picked up the 2013 option for center fielder Curtis Granderson.
Granderson struggled in the postseason, going 3-for-30 with 16 strikeouts and just one homer and one RBI. He was particularly unproductive against the Detroit Tigers in the American League Championship Series.
