Evan Carter's RBI single
Yankees starter Clarke Schmidt felt he needed to attack the strike zone more aggressively and he saw it pay off against the Orioles on Saturday afternoon, throwing seven innings without allowing a hit in a 90 win. While Schmidt was tempted to try and complete the no-no, his pitch count was already at 103 so he wisely took "the big picture" approach. Former Yankee Gary Sanchez singled off reliever JT Brubaker to spoil the no hitter but catcher J.C. Escarra was impressed with Schmidt's performance nonetheless. Shortstop Anthony Volpe called the outing "incredible" and was not the least bit surprised at how he dominated the Orioles lineup.

Yankees' Manager Aaron Boone on Aaron Judge's Health: 'I Don't Know Yet'
Major League Baseball Yankees' Manager Aaron Boone on Aaron Judge's Health: 'I Don't Know Yet' Published Aug. 19, 2025 2:53 p.m. ET share facebook x reddit link Giancarlo Stanton will return to the New York Yankees' lineup in right field Tuesday night after missing three games with what the team described as general soreness, manager Aaron Boone told radio station WFAN, but things aren't as clear when it comes to the status of star slugger Aaron Judge. Boone said there is no timetable on a fielding return for Judge, who might not get back to full health this season. "I don't think we're going to see him throwing like he normally does at any point this year, but that's OK," Boone said. "We've got to feel like he can go out there and protect himself." Judge has been limited to being a designated hitter since being activated from the injured list on Aug. 5, which makes writing up the Yankees' lineup difficult given the presence of Stanton. "I don't know yet," Boone said about Judge's return to the field. "What I've said is I'm waiting on the trainers to say, 'Thumbs up.' He's expected to long toss again today, so I don't expect it here in Tampa. Could it be Boston? Maybe. I just don't know yet." ADVERTISEMENT The Yankees are coming off a three-game sweep of the St. Louis Cardinals and hold a three-game lead for the final American League wild-card spot. Offensively, they will be satisfied if Judge can simply remain productive at the plate. He entered the week batting .333 with 39 home runs, 91 RBIs and a 1.134 OPS, all among the league leaders. His home run Sunday was his first extra-base hit since returning. Judge's inability to play the field has reduced the team's flexibility. Stanton is batting .299 with 12 home runs, 34 RBIs and a .953 OPS this season, but his long injury history makes any outfield assignment a risk. He did not debut until mid-June because of tendinitis in both elbows. After playing three straight games in the outfield last week, he missed three consecutive games with soreness. He has declined to specify where the discomfort occurred. Entering play on Tuesday, the Yankees are in a three-way tie for a wild card spot, as the Red Sox and Mariners have the same .540 winning percentage. The Guardians are three games back of the trio, at 64-60. The Associated Press contributed to this report. Want great stories delivered right to your inbox?

Cameron Maybin doesn't want the ‘manufactured shakeups' of Rob Manfred's MLB realignment idea
Realignment in baseball stirred up some sour feelings. When commissioner Rob Manfred pointed out that Major League Baseball expansion could also mean realigning the divisions and conferences, the baseball world had itself a tizzy, speculating that it would ruin decades-long rivalries, among other traditions of America's Pastime. Advertisement MLB analyst and former Yankee Cameron Maybin was one of those firmly in the anti-realignment camp. 'Manfred's realignment talk isn't just about moving teams around, it tilts playoff balance. Some divisions get watered down others overloaded and rivalries that drive October storylines we love, vanish. Baseball needs competitive integrity, not manufactured shakeups,' former Yankee and Mets outfielder Cameron Maybin posted on X. In the speculated potential realignment, the Yankees, Mets, Phillies and Red Sox – four teams that have won a combined six World Series since the start of the 2004 season and are constantly near the top of MLB in payroll – would be in the same division due to their proximity. 3 Major League Baseball Commissioner Rob Manfred discussed MLB realignment as a possibility. Getty Images Advertisement With 28.6% of the last twenty World Series winner potentially being in the same division, Maybin speculated that these changes would dramatically affect competitive balance within the league as well. Meanwhile, the new-look South Division, which could in theory feature an expansion team in Nashville, Tenn., as well as the Atlanta Braves, Tampa Bay Rays and Miami Marlins, would feature zero current teams with records above .500 and just one World Series win since 2004. Advertisement 3 Cameron Maybin isn't a fan of MLB realignment. Getty Images In the proposed revamped Central division, the Cardinals, Reds and White Sox all have payrolls in the bottom half of the league, with only the Cubs (eighth in payroll) having the look of a team ready to spend big to win. Baseball has already changed quite a bit in recent years, with the National League instituting the designated hitter and both leagues have expanded postseasons in recent years. 3 Rob Manfred's realignment plan eliminate the two-league system for geographic conferences. NY Post Advertisement Mets broadcaster Howie Rose called the potential realignment 'total destruction' if the American and National League cease to exist. Yankees broadcaster Michael Kay was among the more open-minded about it, saying its 'worth a try.'
