When the New York Yankees acquired Didi Gregorius in December 2014 to replace Derek Jeter as their everyday shortstop, there was more nervous Yankees fans than excited ones considering they brought in a guy with just 191 total Major League games under his belt to replace a man with 14 All-Star selections and 2,747 games to his name.

However, fast forward three and a half years later and it’s safe to say that Yankees fans throughout New York and around the world are happy to have the Amsterdam, Netherlands native as their everyday shortstop.

Leading up to Mother’s Day, the 28-year-old surprised some more Yankees fans as he went up to the team’s front office and surprised all of the hard-working mothers with flowers ahead of their special day.

The front office staff probably sees players come through on a regular basis, but they were definitely thrown off guard when they saw their beloved shortstop stop by with flowers.



Big thank you to @ScottsFlowerNYC for contributing the flowers. The #MothersDay smiles were epic! 💐😁💐😁💐😁 pic.twitter.com/zXm262qsJy — Sir Didi Gregorius (@DidiG18) May 13, 2018

Since joining the Yankees, Gregorius has topped his season stats each year and is well on his way to having a career-season with 10 home runs and 31 RBI through 38 games.
