Yankees’ 2025 Defense: Eye Test Vs. Advanced Metrics originally appeared on Athlon Sports.

On this Hall of Fame weekend, let’s examine which current Yankees might eventually join CC Sabathia in Cooperstown.

1. Eugenio Suarez: The Arizona Diamondbacks star is No. 1 in our updated MLB trade deadline candidate rankings and could be the most impactful player to move this month. On pace to hit more than 50 home runs, the 2025 All-Star is on the wish list of every contender in need of third-base help.

Designated hitter Giancarlo Stanton stayed hot in homering in the fourth for a 1-0 Yankees lead Monday night, the Blue Jays countered in the fifth when Bo Bichette laced a two-out, two-run double off laboring lefty Carlos Rodon and then speedy outfielder Myles Straw hit a groundball a couple steps to third baseman Oswald Peraza ’s left.

They met the Mets six times this season and fought to a draw. The 6-4 win on Sunday followed six consecutive losses that knocked the Yankees from first place in the AL East.

Grosz has spent the entire 2025 season at high A, posting a 4.14 ERA with 94 strikeouts in 85 innings and holding batters to a .211 average. He has a high-spin fastball that sits in the mid-90s, but the secondary stuff needs improvement, and the command is a tick below average (35 walks).

The Yankees snapped a five-game losing streak to the Blue Jays with a 5-4 win on Tuesday. Ben Rice delivered the game-winning homer in the top of the ninth inning to break free of a 4-4 tie. This is the rubber match with the winner taking the series — Yankees took the first series (2-1) and the Blue Jays swept the second (4-0).
