Yankees, Trade Deadline Sellers? Aaron Judge Injury Nearly Forced Their Hand
Based on facts, either observed and verified firsthand by the reporter, or reported and verified from knowledgeable sources. Newsweek AI is in beta. Translations may contain inaccuracies—please refer to the original content. Aaron Judge's elbow injury has altered the New York Yankees' trade deadline plans during a down month of July — and could have altered them more, according to a new report. Andy Martino of SNY told Rich Herrera Tuesday on the Bret Boone podcast (sans Boone, now the Texas Rangers' hitting coach) that the Yankees were contemplating trading players off their major league roster before the 6 p.m. ET Thursday deadline depending on Judge's diagnosis. "On Friday night, the Yankees brass went to bed thinking Aaron Judge maybe, probably needs Tommy John surgery," Martino said. "They really were worried about that. Had that happened, there's a good chance the Yankees turn into sellers because they were already having a tough time. "You lose Judge after already losing (Gerrit) Cole, maybe just reload ... trade some free agents to be," Martino continued. "That obviously didn't happen. Judge should be back around the 10-day mark. He just has a flexor strain, but the team's still playing poorly and sometimes it's not your year." Aaron Judge #99 of the New York Yankees looks on during the fifth inning against the Philadelphia Phillies at Yankee Stadium on July 27, 2025 in the Bronx borough of New York City. Aaron Judge #99 of the New York Yankees looks on during the fifth inning against the Philadelphia Phillies at Yankee Stadium on July 27, 2025 in the Bronx borough of New York idea of selling at the deadline is anathema to Yankees fans, who annually expect their team to win the World Series. New York followed up its 2024 American League pennant by racing out to a 42-25 start through June 12. The Yankees are 15-24 since then. A season-ending injury to Judge, the 2024 AL MVP and the 2025 leader in Wins Above Replacement, would have sunk their chances even further. Going off this timeline: July 29/30: Tee work resumes Aug. 5: Eligible to return from IL (team is on road at TEX) Aug. 8: Team returns home vs. HOU Aug. 8-13: Throwing resumes — Bryan Hoch ⚾️ (@BryanHoch) July 29, 2025 At 57-49, New York is currently in the top Wild Card position in the AL, but only 1.5 games separate the Yankees and the fourth-place Texas Rangers (56-51) in the race for three Wild Card spots. More news: Yankees Make Trade, Send Veteran Pitcher to Atlanta Ahead of Trade Deadline What's more, Judge might not be back around the 10-day mark, the minimum stint required for a player on the injured list. "Now that the news comes out that it's a flexor strain, everybody's like, 'oh it could've been a lot worse.' No it couldn't have," sports injury expert Will Carroll said Monday on Foul Territory. "This is worse than a UCL tear," Carroll continued. "For a hitter ... Bryce Harper ruptured his UCL, continued hitting, took the team to the playoffs, had surgery after the season, barely missed any time. ... For Judge, a flexor tendon — which is what you need to rotate the bat, maintain grip, to make those fine adjustments you have to make — this is everything." Carroll suggested Judge might not return until September. More news: Yankees Make Trade, Acquire All-Star Third Baseman "This doesn't heal quickly," he said. "This small little (flexor) tendon, which overlaps with the UCL, often takes a month or even more to heal up." Regardless of how long the Yankees will be without Judge, Martino believes the injury might already have affected the front office's approach to the trade deadline. "The Yankees probably played themselves out of the front office viewing them as, like, all-in, aggressive, trade-your-top-prospects kind of year to, like, more measured buyers," he said.

Who was Ryne Sandberg's first wife? A look at his early marriage and divorce
Ryne Sandberg, the legendary Major League Baseball (MLB) Hall of Famer known as 'Ryno,' had a remarkable career as a second baseman, primarily with the Chicago Cubs. While his professional achievements, like the iconic 'Sandberg Game' in 1984, are well-documented, his personal life has also drawn interest, particularly regarding his first marriage. So, who was Ryne Sandberg's first wife? Let's dive into the details. Ryne Sandberg's First Wife: Cindy White Ryne Sandberg's first wife was Cindy White. The couple were high school sweethearts, having met during their teenage years in Spokane, Washington, where Sandberg attended North Central High School. Their relationship blossomed early, and they tied the knot in 1979, the same year Sandberg began his professional baseball career after being drafted by the Philadelphia Phillies. This marriage coincided with the start of his journey in the minor leagues, marking a significant period in both his personal and professional life. Life Together and Family Ryne and Cindy Sandberg's marriage lasted for 16 years, from 1979 until their divorce in July 1995. During this time, they welcomed two children, Justin and Lindsey. Sandberg was deeply devoted to his children, and his love for them played a significant role in his life decisions, including his surprising retirement from baseball in 1994. According to reports, Sandberg's desire to prioritize his family, particularly his children, was a key factor in his decision to step away from the game at the peak of his career. Challenges and Divorce The marriage between Ryne and Cindy faced challenges, particularly in the early 1990s. Rumors of personal turmoil, including alleged affairs, surfaced in the media, contributing to speculation about Sandberg's abrupt retirement in 1994. While these rumors were never fully substantiated, they added strain to their relationship. Cindy filed for divorce in December 1993, and although the couple briefly reconciled, she filed again shortly after Sandberg's retirement announcement on June 13, 1994. The divorce was finalized in July 1995, marking the end of their 16-year marriage. In a 1995 interview, Cindy addressed the rumors and gossip surrounding their split, expressing her desire to set the record straight. She emphasized her perspective as the ex-wife of a baseball star and highlighted the challenges of their high-profile life. Despite the divorce, Cindy spoke positively about her children and her gratitude for their shared history. Ryne Sandberg's Life After the Divorce Following the divorce, Ryne Sandberg married Margaret Koehnemann in August 1995, just a month after his divorce from Cindy was finalized. Margaret brought three children from a previous marriage—B.R., Adriane, and Steven—into their blended family, and together, Ryne and Margaret raised five children. The couple settled in Lake Bluff, Illinois, where Sandberg remained active in the community, including supporting the Lake Bluff Youth Baseball Association. Sandberg's return to baseball in 1996 was partly influenced by his new marriage and a renewed passion for the game. With Margaret's support, he rejoined the Chicago Cubs for the 1996 and 1997 seasons, finishing his career on a high note before retiring permanently in 1997. His Hall of Fame induction in 2005 and the retirement of his number 23 by the Cubs cemented his legacy as one of baseball's greatest second basemen. Cindy White's Life Post-Divorce After the divorce, Cindy White maintained a relatively low profile. She focused on raising Justin and Lindsey, who remained close to their father. In court proceedings in 1996, Cindy expressed concerns about the children's involvement in Sandberg's baseball life, preferring they maintain their regular activities rather than travelling to games. Despite their differences, both Ryne and Cindy prioritized their children's well-being. Ahmedabad Plane Crash

MLB trade deadline cheat sheet: Top storylines, bold predictions, best-available players
Happy Trade Deadline Eve Eve! With mere days until the MLB trade deadline and most of the available players yet to change teams, we're likely in for another mad dash to the finish, Thursday at 6 p.m. ET. Monday brought more twists and turns. First, there was the news that Guardians reliever Emmanuel Clase had been placed on non-disciplinary paid as part of a sports betting investigation, a shocking development that shook the sport, but also the back-end reliever trade market. Then there was the unfortunate sight of Diamondbacks third baseman Eugenio Suárez writhing in pain after he was hit on the hand by a pitch, throwing the trade status of perhaps the deadline's best available bat into question. Advertisement What other surprises could await? To set the stage for the run-in to the deadline, I've put together a primer based on what I'm hearing in conversations and texts with front office executives across the league. Here are top storylines to watch, the best-available players on the market, the teams that are most likely to dominate the headlines (and some of their top trade targets), along with 10 bold predictions that I've thrown in just for fun. 1. Who will win the Eugenio Suárez sweepstakes? (And it's still on, right?) The Diamondbacks slugger could be the headliner of this year's trade deadline — if he's healthy. Suárez, who has 36 homers and a league-leading 87 RBIs, had several GMs across MLB holding their breath Monday night after he was hit on the right hand with a fastball and exited the game in Detroit. The worst-case scenario appears to have been avoided: Suárez's X-rays were negative, he is considered day-to-day and will undergo further testing, but we'll have to wait and see how this unfolds. The Mariners, Tigers, Reds, Cubs, Brewers, Mets and Phillies have all been linked to Suárez with at least some interest in acquiring him. 2. In a lackluster starting pitching market, will three pitchers who have underwhelmed — and one who has exceeded expectations — be moved? Will Sandy Alcantara of the Marlins, Dylan Cease of the Padres or Zac Gallen of the Diamondbacks be traded? All three have disappointed this season and their trade value has been significantly depressed, but as always, starting pitching is in demand, so they could be dealt if their respective teams' asking price is met. Cease and Gallen will be free agents at season's end, while Alcantara has two more years of team control. Is there a team willing to overpay for one of them? The Marlins are said to believe that Alcantara will eventually return to his prior standout form, so they are still putting a steep prospect price on him; if it's not met, they could keep the 2022 NL Cy Young Award winner and trade him in the offseason or at next year's trade deadline. Advertisement Meanwhile, the Nationals are listening to inquiries on MacKenzie Gore, but it's unclear if they'll actually trade him. The lefty has impressed this season, posting a 3.52 ERA and averaging a career-high 11.0 strikeouts per nine innings. He is under team control through 2027. The Cubs are among several teams that have had trade discussions with Washington regarding Gore. Nationals interim GM Mike DeBartolo may decide to stand pat. But if he's able to trade Gore for a significant prospect haul, he would make a huge statement that could help him keep the job beyond this year. 3. How many high-leverage relievers will be traded, and what will they net for selling teams? The market is once again robust for back-end relievers, and many contenders — including the Phillies, Mets, Dodgers, Tigers, Mariners and Rangers, among others — have made that their top deadline priority. Monday's news about Emmanuel Clase being put on administrative leave completely changed the trade market as he was expected to be one of the top two closers traded (along with the Twins' Jhoan Duran). Obviously, that's no longer the case. Clase's absence improves the trade value of the remaining relievers. Teams like the Twins, Cardinals and Pirates should get better prospect packages for their back-end relievers; meanwhile, Cleveland now must adjust. The stakes remain high for the teams that hope to acquire a big bullpen arm, but now there's one fewer. Teams could end up winning or losing the division or a playoff series based on whether they land or lose out on key relievers at the deadline. 4. Which president of baseball operations or GM will make the biggest splash at the deadline? It could be the Mariners' Jerry Dipoto, who already landed Josh Naylor from the Diamondbacks. Or the Phillies' Dave Dombrowski, who has signaled that he's ready to go all-in. Maybe it's the Cubs' Jed Hoyer, who just received a multiyear contract extension and needs to upgrade his roster to best the Brewers in the NL Central. Or perhaps it's Houston's Dana Brown, who's dealing with a bunch of injuries to the team's position player core. Advertisement On the other end of the spectrum, maybe it's an executive from a selling club, such as the Diamondbacks' Mike Hazen or two GMs who are under intense scrutiny amid disappointing seasons, the Orioles' Mike Elias and the Pirates' Ben Cherington. 5. Will Luis Robert Jr. and Cedric Mullins, the top two available center fielders, be traded — and how much value do they even have? Their respective trade value has dropped over the past couple of years, and it's not clear whether the White Sox or Orioles will get a good enough offer to accept. Mullins is an impending free agent, so one would think that Baltimore will move him. Robert has two more years of team control, and The Athletic's Ken Rosenthal reported Monday that the White Sox will exercise his $20 million club option for 2026 if they don't receive at least one of a team's top 10 prospects in return. I think a change of scenery would really help Robert, who is an above-average defender in center field with a strong combination of power and speed. He's had to endure several brutal, non-competitive seasons on the South Side, with no lineup protection around him. If he goes to a contender with a deep lineup and strong clubhouse, like the Phillies, Mets or Dodgers, I think he might be able to maximize his talents and shine again. 1. Arizona Diamondbacks The Diamondbacks are expected to be the headliner of this trade deadline. After trading Josh Naylor to the Mariners and Randal Grichuk to the Royals, they are now prepared to deal impending free agents Eugenio Suárez, Zac Gallen and Merrill Kelly between now and Thursday's deadline. 2. Baltimore Orioles The Orioles are expected to be another big mover in the market as they have several players on expiring contracts to deal, including starter Charlie Morton, reliever Seranthony Domínguez and position players including Ryan O'Hearn and Cedric Mullins. Outfielder Ramón Laureano, infielder Ramon Urías and others could also be dealt. The O's have already traded relievers Gregory Soto and Bryan Baker. 3. Pittsburgh Pirates The Pirates could trade controllable relievers David Bednar and Dennis Santana, along with Mitch Keller, one of the better starting pitchers who might be on the move. There has been buzz about them dangling outfielders Oneil Cruz and Bryan Reynolds, but I have not confirmed those rumors. 4. Minnesota Twins The Twins have the best-available closer (Jhoan Duran) and one of the best set-up men (Griffin Jax, though he's pitched to a 4.00 ERA this year). They have listened to inquiries on starter Joe Ryan, who is not expected to be traded. They dealt his rotation mate, Chris Paddack, to the division-rival Tigers on Monday. Utilityman Willi Castro, an impending free agent, is coveted by several contending teams. Advertisement 5. Miami Marlins The Marlins have been listening on starting pitchers Sandy Alcantara and Edward Cabrera but won't trade either unless they get a strong return that augments their rebuild. It's more likely they move Cabrera than Alcantara because they believe Alcantara's trade value will be much higher in the offseason or at next year's trade deadline, and it's hard to argue with that approach. Meanwhile, the Marlins (50-55) have played above-.500 ball for the last two months and are five games ahead of the disappointing Braves in the standings. 1. Philadelphia Phillies After signing reliever Dave Robertson as a free agent, the Phillies are now looking to add an even more impactful high-leverage reliever. Their bullpen ranks 22nd in the league in ERA (4.28) and has pitched the fewest innings in the majors because of the team's strong rotation. The Phillies could also use a right-handed bat and have been linked to Luis Robert Jr. and Eugenio Suárez. 2. Chicago Cubs The Cubs have been focused on the top of the starting pitching market, including MacKenzie Gore, Sandy Alcantara, Edward Caberera, Mitch Keller, Merrill Kelly and Zac Gallen. 3. Seattle Mariners The Mariners already added Josh Naylor via a smart trade with Arizona, but they're not done. They are trying to acquire more bullpen depth and are still in the running to land Eugenio Suárez. 4. Houston Astros The Astros are looking to add a left-handed hitter who could play second base, third base or left field, as well as an impact starter who could slot in behind Framber Valdez and Hunter Brown in their rotation. 5. New York Yankees The Yankees solved their third-base situation with the trade for Ryan McMahon, then added infielder Amed Rosario, who provides versatility and a good bat versus lefties (.829 OPS). Now, they are focused on acquiring a starting pitcher and a reliever or two. They will not trade outfielder Spencer Jones or shortstop George Lombard Jr., but are open-minded about swapping their other top prospects in the right deal. 6. San Diego Padres A.J. Preller is everywhere. The Padres' president of baseball operations is open to trading Dylan Cease if he can use him to obtain another starter with more years of control. The Padres are focused on adding a bat or two, with a preference for a left fielder such as Jarren Duran of the Red Sox. Advertisement 7. Toronto Blue Jays The surging Blue Jays have made acquiring a starter their top priority. They'd also like to add bullpen depth and a utility player who could give them more positional flexibility. 8. Detroit Tigers The Tigers augmented their rotation with the trade for Chris Paddack. Now, they want to add an impact reliever to the back of their bullpen and also would like to pick up another right-handed bat. 9. New York Mets The Mets added lefty reliever Gregory Soto in a swap with the Orioles and now, like the division-rival Phillies, are chasing more back-end relief, along with an upgrade in the outfield. 10. Cincinnati Reds The Reds have focused on adding a corner power bat and improving their bullpen depth. 11. Los Angeles Dodgers The Dodgers are determined to add bullpen depth and are also seeking a utility player. They could surprise with a left-field upgrade as well. 12. Milwaukee Brewers The Brewers are trying to add a power bat with preference for the left side of the infield, but have also been linked with other types of hitters. (Ken Rosenthal reported that they're among the teams interested in the Orioles' Ryan O'Hearn.) They would like to add to their bullpen depth as well. 13. Boston Red Sox The Red Sox would like to add a starting pitcher, upgrade at first base and find their long-term solution at catcher. Teams have been inquiring about Jarren Duran for several months now, and if the Sox can get the right controllable starting pitcher or first baseman, they'll probably trade him. Otherwise, don't be surprised if he remains a Red Sox. 14. Texas Rangers The Rangers are trying to acquire an impact reliever and a solid right-handed hitter who can come off the bench. 15. San Francisco Giants It's been more than a month since the Giants shocked the baseball world with the June 15 blockbuster deal for Rafael Devers, one of the moves that will define this trade season. They entered Tuesday four games out of the final NL wild-card spot and would like to add another bat before the deadline. Advertisement 16. Kansas City Royals The Royals have traded for outfielder Randal Grichuk and utilityman Adam Frazier, and reached a multiyear extension with starter Seth Lugo to bolster their rotation beyond this season. They entered Tuesday 4 1/2 games out of the final AL wild-card spot. They'd love to acquire an impact bat if they can match up with a team that's looking to move one. These are the top players who teams are fielding inquiries on heading into Thursday's trade deadline. (Note: Salary and contract details are listed in parentheses after each player.) 1.
