The sky is falling in the Bronx, but the forecast is promising. Aaron Judge is back after a minimum stay on the IL, and the uber-talented lineup is capable of outscoring any team. Brian Cashman made some tough decisions to cut veterans like DJ LeMahieu and Marcus Stroman and refreshed the bullpen at the trade deadline. Although the new acquisitions are off to an inauspicious start, they are a clear upgrade on paper.
As we enter the final stretch of the season, the 2026 roster is taking shape, and several Yankees might be finding themselves on new teams next year.
