Yankees’ Zach Britton has changed his name ... to Zack Britton

Say goodbye to the man you knew and Zach Britton and say hello to Zack Britton.

This is the kind of monumental change that I just don’t know if I can handle. One day you think you know a dude, the next it’s like he’s an entirely different person with a name pronounced the exact same way.

Well, except for those weirdos who don’t know Zach is pronounced Zach, and instead say “Zatch,” like some kind of monster.

It’s been a weird couple of years for baseball when it comes to name changes. It wasn’t long ago that B.J. Upton became Melvin Upton, in a move that everyone hated — including his wife, who begged him to go back to the man we all knew and loved.

For now, Zack Britton is saying it’s a long story why he had a different name for all these years, but maybe, one day, we’ll get the answers we seek.
