Aaron Boone and Trent Grisham said the center fielder hurt his hammy on the stolen base attempt (before the play in the OF). Imaging is expected. "It seems like an injury," Boone said, but no IL decision yet.

The #Yankees still haven't decided on a date for Aaron Judge's return, or if he'll need a rehab assignment. Judge reiterated that he doesn't want to play in MiLB games on Friday after taking on-field BP for the first time. https://t.co/pJZH7FkQgZ 1.1K views · 17 likes · 2 reposts · 1 replies 05 Sep 2026 · Open on X →

As Spencer Jones and Trent Grisham return to San Diego, the two are trending in opposite directions. The rookie has earned his playing time — and his keep with the #Yankees facing an impending roster crunch — while the vet has disappointed on both sides of the ball. 7.7K views · 68 likes · 9 reposts · 0 replies 04 Sep 2026 · Open on X →

Ahead of Father's Day, I spoke with #Yankees RP Tim Hill.  We discussed losing our dads to cancer, inheriting the genes that took them, our ongoing grief & more.  The result is this deeply personal story. I hope it helps anyone having a tough time today. https://t.co/wT1xT6pi 287.6K views · 544 likes · 67 reposts · 20 replies 15 Jun 2025 · Open on X →
