Triple Threat



For the 2026 season, the Yankees upgraded but also have been financially responsible, which is understandable with the way baseball money is tossed around like a salad being prepared. They signed their top target, Cody Bellinger, and re-signed Paul Goldschmidt, which will complement Aaron Judge and Giancarlo Stanton in the lineup. For the Yankees, it's their time to reset and have their eyes on the World Series.

Just the power of Judge, Bellinger, and Goldschmidt last season can be the same this season.

Last season's Topps Now card of the three says it all:

The Bronx Bombers lived up to their nickname in a 20-9 win over the Milwaukee Brewers. Paul Goldschmidt, Cody Bellinger, and Aaron Judge hit three straight homers on the game's first three pitches, marking the first time the New York Yankees ever achieved the feat. The homers kept coming for New York, as the club set a new single-game record with nine.

Until then, see you at the park!

Yankees Fading Fast

With a strong start to the season, the  Yankees  now find themselves struggling to win games as they have lost their last six games, the last two to the crosstown rival  Mets . The Yankees have a 48-41 record and are sitting three games behind the  Toronto Blue Jays  in the AL East.  The news also got worse for them, as Clarke Schmidt is likely facing Tommy John surgery, and Aaron Judge was hit in the face by a baseball tossed by Anthony Volpe in between innings. With the trade deadline coming up, the Yankees need to look at pitching and third base options. If they have  World Series  aspirations, they need to make improvements, or they may not be playing in October. — Joe Boesch

It is the 24th anniversary of September 11, 2001, and a time to remember loved ones and first responders who were lost that day. Then and now, sports have played a significant role in the remembrance and healing process. For many, sports have played a big part in the healing process, from supporting first responders to displaying the American flag during opening ceremonies at stadiums and arenas. Throughout the years, 9/11 and the sport's healing process have been well documented by stories, exhibits, and performances at many sports venues nationwide. The New York Mets and Yankees each wore first responder hats from the PAPD, NYPD, and FDNY to show their support. The 9/11 Memorial and Museum  even had an exhibit called  Comeback Season: Sports After 9/11 , which, according to its webpage, "explores how sports helped the countr...
