One of the St. Louis Cardinals' old friends in on the move again, but he might not be too happy about signing on the dotted line. Paul DeJong, a shortstop for the Cardinals from 2017 through the first half of 2023, agreed to a minor league contract with the New York Yankees with an invite to spring training. The move ordinarily wouldn't make many waves around baseball, but DeJong's longtime disdain for the pinstripes could ruffle some feathers among those in the Bronx.

DeJong's viral anti-Yankees X post may have him putting his foot in his mouth.
