This 13-minute Q & A during and after Yankees batting practice started and ended with an interrogation of Anthony Volpe, whose season-long hitting and fielding struggles now include a few days of rest to let the most recent cortisone shot on his injured left shoulder take effect.
The New York Yankees need to think about their long-term future instead of doing whatever they can to secure Pittsburgh Pirates superstar Paul Skenes.
The longest streak of consecutive winning seasons by an MLB team other than the Yankees is 18 by the Baltimore Orioles (1968-85). The second-longest active streak is 15 straight winning seasons by the Los Angeles Dodgers, who won their 82nd game on Wednesday.
But speaking at Fenway Park on Friday, Yankees general manager Brian Cashman said he could not definitively say whether offseason surgery for Volpe was being considered, but they are not expecting that outcome.
After Aaron Judge’s 362nd career home run on Friday, only Babe Ruth, Mickey Mantle and Lou Gehrig have more for the Yankees.
Only three players in New York Yankees history have hit more home runs than Aaron Judge. On Friday night, Judge swatted his 47th home run of 2025 and the 362nd home run of his career, passing Hall of Famer Joe DiMaggio for sole possession of fourth place on the franchise's home run leaderboard.
The 33-year-old only trails Yankees icons Babe Ruth, Mickey Mantle and Lou Gehrig on the franchise's all-time home run leaderboard. While Judge passed DiMaggio against the Red Sox on Friday, DiMaggio's final home run of his career also occurred during a matchup with Boston in 1951.
Aaron Boone will likely remain the New York Yankees' manager next season, but the team's playoff fate may ultimately dictate his future with the organization.
