He looks like the Gerber Baby without the beard Well-Done Yankees
Lmao
Didn't know he was this well-spoken. Really love what I hear. Go get em Alex!
You're surprised that a white athlete is well spoken? You are going to be really surprised when you find out they can't jump, except for Brock Lesnar he is just a freak.
“I thought he was Dominican and didn’t speak English”
Fixed it for you LMAO
He took me by surprise as well.. I love how he slipped the "Go easy on me ny media!" too lol you can tell hes gonna be a great addition!!
😂
He's very likeable, had all the right answers. Seems like a hardnosed player. I think this is going to work out well.
Hard nosed players don't get benched for showing up late and not hustling.
I like this dude a ton his personality is made for the Bronx!
Always liked Verdugo, even though I’m a Yankee fan. Glad we got him.
Use that anger, Alex! Get back at those RED SOX! Welcome to N.Y. Go get em!!👍👍👍
Have loved him since he rocked that Chingon shirt with the Dodgers back in the day. If he brings that same angsty and confidence to Yankee stadium we’re gonna fuckin love the guy
The dude with the dirty laundry pile in the back LMAO
I had to rewind the video to hear the question for that guy, green screen that!!
Verdugo, judge and Soto, haven’t had that much flare in an outfield in a long time
LOVE that The Yankees FINALLY got some left handed bats in Verdugo & Soto.
Now it’s time to close the deal with Yamamoto and get this club back on top where it belongs!
SIKE!!! 🤣💙✌🏽
YamaNOto lol. But I'm happy we didn't get him. Too much money on a player with no MLB experience.
What a well spoken dude I like this kid I've always watched him and liked his game
Alex you did great 👍 on this introduction
Best of luck to Verdugo, I’m a Seattle fan but I’ve always appreciated what Verdugo does and I can see this working out well for the Yankees.
Excited for Alex to be in NY. The reporter who asked him about playing with Betts did not prepare 😅
I’m redsox fan .. just wanted to see this and that part had me dead 🤣especially since he was traded for him
Verdugo handled the question perfectly though
LETS GO VERDUGO
I know it's the offseason, but can't we introduce people a better way than a Zoom meeting?
Bro you really think they gonna do it at the stadium? For a trade? Wait until something big. Like a 14 year extension for Juan Soto or long term Yamamoto deal.
Well to be fair they did a press conference for Stanton, so they could have done one for Soto.
@@baseballcrypt Stanton was already under contract though.
Looking forward to you having a hell of a season and bring the excitement back.
From Las Vegas, welcome to NYY!
Welcome Alex we are going to love you as a Yankees get off those stinky red Sox and welcome to the great Yankees ⚾️
I like this guy 👦 👌
Why do I love this kid's attitude so much
there was always one Red Sock in the last few years that I always said man, this f’in guy kills us….and he hits everything hard and always got clutch hits….and it was Verdugo. Welcome to the Bronx kid
Yeah, Cashman said he was looking to make this deal for a while until he could do it this offseason.
Is that why papabomb sorry if I’m wrong said that
i'm so excited to see Alex play in pinstripes let's go like his energy
He has a baby face if I've ever seen one.
A lot more likable as a Yankee and clean shaven!
Stupidest rule ever
@@ilovekatescott8057 only for a pussy like you.
Good guy!!!
Bro " Be easy on me New York Media", had me dying. Not going to lie, I was a little worried before hearing Alex speak. Seems intelligent, and hungry. I can dig that type of attitude. Looking forward to seeing how he shows up for the boys in the room
what the hell were you worried about lmao dude is a great player
You hear things ya know? Never know how a dude can handle the pressure. I sincerely hope youre right@@kubby6513
I'm excited
If he can have .260-.270 BA that would be an extra bonus for us.
Yea he is a big upgrade over a lot of guys we had last year
Great interview, Alex 👊🏻
whose mans had his laundry chillin behind him on zoom lol
I gotta admit, I disliked him big time as a Red Sox. He’ll grow on me I guess, seems like a genuine dude.
I heard Susan Waldman interview Alex in a pregrame segment and I knew he was a respectable player and let us hope he performs even better with the Yanks which would be phenomenable
Nice to meet you Alex! Welcome and I think you look great clean shaven!
He either looks like a professional toddler or Jimmy Hopkins from Bully the video game
It's always weird switching gears from rooting against a Red Sox player to rooting for them as a Yankee (I thought I'd sh** the bed when they Yanks got Damon!). Alex V makes it much less weird...Welcome to the Yanks!
Very happy and actually content that Verdugo is a😃 yankee. Looks ten years younger. I like it. You present yourself in a classy manner . It fits your personality..
One of the few players to play for three greatest franchises in baseball. Yankees, Dodgers, Red Sox.. In that order of greatness..
I’m excited. Period. I think it’s a good addition.
Kuty couldnt move his damn pile of laundry out of the shot?? 🤣🤣🤣
How did Max not know Verdugo was traded in the Betts deal…bad look
Need some of that Mexican flair to the Yankees he’s gonna be great 🇲🇽
Last time we had that we won the WS so I agree Alfredo aceves is a GOAT
he handled the mookie betts question very well ....like do your research before asking questions he was apart of the trade sheesh
yeah you could tell the journalist felt dumb and appreciated alex not taking it personal lol
Great question by the reporter about facing Yamamoto
He looks so much younger wow
He said it himself just as I was about to typing this, that he looks like a kid just out of high school!!!!!!!
Dugie 🔥
When the Yankees get Yamamoto he better NOT be introduced over damn Zoom!
news flash kid, yamamoto just sign with toronto lol
lol now this is just sad to read. He couldn't care less about toronto bro @@leninfranco9328
@@leninfranco9328 Judging from your past comments you are indeed a sad blow jays fan.
How about the dodgers Toronto never had a shot😂@@leninfranco9328
😂😂
when Max Goodman brought up him playing with Mookie Betts i had some serious secondhand cringe, like how do you not know he didn't play with Mookie lmao
He looks so young now
Roger Clemens, Wade Boggs, and Johnny Damon were Red Sox players and now are Yankee idols. Only Red Sox player who went to Yankees that fans hate, is Jacoby Elsbury. Don't be that Elsbury
This guy seemed like the biggest prick on the Red Sox but now he seems very down to earth
He’s funny to watch when he gets pumped
I hope this guy works out for the Yanks!
Looking like Judges lil bro
GO YANKEES 💯💯
Welcome man!!! Excited for Alex 🙌
He looks 10 years younger without the facial hair
Welcome to the Bronx Dugie!!
Hi Alex welcome to the Yankees praying for a breakthrough season in Jesus name. 🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻 2024
He's looks like a baby kid without the beard.
i predict he will take #66 Higgy;s Old number, He sounds great in this interview...l like his attitude
I think he'll fit in fine with this team...A lefthanded hitting outfielder who can leadoff is needed here..He's not going to cause the issues in the clubhouse they talk about this year
Aww, his mum has her boy back again lol!
Bro looks like a teenager w out the beard lol
Welcome to NY verdugo.
I’ve seen this dude at Billys
Doesn't run out of the box to first when he hits, sluggish with the bat. Can't wait till they trade him.
Covid is over, stop doing remote press conference.. we are the New York Yankees we can do it
Im a Red Sox fan and i think this is good for Verdugo. He needs more discipline and tethered. I see big things for this kids future with this trade.
Let's go d0g
Like IKF last season
I appreciate this pickup in Alex V as well
Good luck to you Alex V
Thanks for leaving that Boston ballclub 😂
I hope Vertigo doesn’t get dizzy catching fly balls in outfield
Why is everything zoom calls ? Just have a press release at Yankee stadium
I can hear Sterling’s call now whenever he bangs one outta the park… “Te quiero mucho Verdigo!”
I could tell he love being a yankees!!
Verdugo legit looks like Jynxzi from without a beard
I hated him on the Sox! He always seemed to kill us at the plate. Looking forward to see him as a member of the Empire!
Welp, now we know why he prefers the beard.
This guy legit looks like a 15 year old. I had to double check and make sure it wasn’t some amateur podcaster rather than the player in question. 😅
Michael Kay always stating the beard policy doesn’t affect potential free agents. Alex just stated it bothered him but he knew he had no choice, so just got it over with to get used to it.
Of course, no free agent will state it was a factor, but for Michael Kay to think it’s never affected one player from signing as a side factor is naive
LOL! HE WAS MAD TO JOIN A TREBLE TEAM
"I feel like a kid again." Well, you look like a kid again.
Maybe we can do our laundry and clean our room up during an interview? Would be nice to see a bit more professionalism on this from the press….this is a professional organization the media should carry themselves accordingly.
😂😂 just watched talking Yanks and Jake mentioned it so I had to watch this and see what the fuss was about 😂 you are right though not a good look very unprofessional
Thank you! Alex made a great first impression...the NY media? Not so much.
He's not even wearing a Yankees cap
Welcome to the New York we need your left handed bat I hope they let you lead off
What's with this Zoom crap? Is it 2020?
Wonder how Verdugo likes shaving!
Biggest thing Verdugo needs to do is NOT change his swing stricly for the porch. I know that I wouldn't have that kind of self control, but that's also why I work in IT.
We're still gonna throw shit at him in the outfield, right? Lol
😂😂😂
I know The Yanks don’t need to save money for introducing players. Hell, do it all once instead of acting like it’s grade school in 2020.
Cool! Wasn’t aware , this dude seems like a likable guy! Let’s hope we get Yamamoto & if we do, pleeezzz- NO ZOOM shit!
Don’t worry no zoom 😂
@@BobSmith-qh1ej yup, no need for that. It’s too late. He wanted the warm west coast & my assumption is that he will be “used” for few years to draw attendance & revenue & later be on trading block or DFA & become damaged goods. Look what happened to Manny & Puhols
Clown saying he played with mookie betts lol
You’re just salty Alex! Go Dodgers!
Yankees should allow shadows at least. Not a full beard.
They need to let these guys grow beards.
He Reminds me of Todd from Breaking Bad
What is the zoom shit do not like this format at all It looks like we're still living in pandemic😂
The Yankees are a billion dollar company and the first time we hear from our players worth millions of dollars is asked by a guy who has unfolded laundry behind him? There’s are low quality pathetic videos over zoom by unprofessional reporters
The New York Yankees made a huge mistake to Alex Verdugo and Juan Soto shame On the New York Yankees to get Alex Verdugo and Juan Soto
Weak contact is better than no contact I always say 😒
