Nestor Cortes has seen just about everything in his baseball life to date, but he’s still chasing a championship. But for a guy who says that he has been in the gutter, there’s always plenty to smile about. Nasty on the mound, yet anything but in person, Cortes sat for a chat with Yankees Magazine deputy editor Jon Schwartz to discuss his journey, the vagaries of pitch selection and so much more.
