  • After coming up through the Yankees system as a draft pick out of Fresno State, to now being named the 16th Captain in franchise history, Aaron Judge tells Michael Kay and Meredith Marakovits why the values here in the Bronx held more weight than other clubs pursuing him in free agency.

      @@juancuelloespinosa5495 today was just about Aaron judge being named captain. That’s it. Tomorrow and beyond before spring training we need a left fielder. Whether committing to the guys in the minors and use a stop gap…or going all in trading for Brian Reynolds or one of the outfielders from Arizona. What’s in the past is in the past. So far Hal to me has been taking the reigns and doing excellent, cleaning up the shit cashman left behind. Let’s see what happens next

      Judge never takes credit for his accomplishments and always accepts responsibility and accountability for his life. When asked what he thought about some nutty fans booing him in the playoffs, his response? “I’ve got to play better”. What a great man to select as an example and a leader of your team. Derek Jeter was just like that and look at what he achieved. The Yanks are gonna go far in 2023 and I think we are all going to be proud.
