Derek Jeter on Yankees' Recent Struggles: 'Way too many mistakes'
Are the New York Yankees built to return to the World Series? The Captain doesn't think so unless they fix those errors and mistakes. "They make way too many mistakes... You can't get away with making that number of mistakes against great teams," Yankees great and FOX Sports' analyst Derek Jeter said during Saturday's rain delay at the MLB Speedway Classic. The Yankees made a flurry of trade deadline deals to improve their bullpen, bringing in relievers David Bednar from the Pittsburgh Pirates, Jake Bird from the Colorado Rockies and Camilo Doval from the San Francisco Giants. But all three struggled in Friday's brutal 13-12 loss to the Miami Marlins, which included several blown leads. The Yankees had won 79 straight games when scoring 10-plus runs, which was the longest streak in MLB since 2019."New team, new surroundings, it takes awhile to adjust," Jeter said about the new relievers. But the Yankees lost again on Saturday to the Marlins in a 2-0 shutout that included a basrunning mistake by Jazz Chisholm Jr when he was caught not paying attention that forced a double play. "You can't continue to do it. You have to clean it up. I mean, it's that simple, there's no excuses," Jeter said. "You have to play better. If you don't play better, you're not going to go very far."

Luis Gil to debut Sunday as Yankees face growing injury concerns
Luis Gil to debut Sunday as Yankees face growing injury concerns originally appeared on Athlon Sports. The Yankees are still shopping for starting pitching ahead of Thursday's trade deadline, but they might already have an option in-house. Manager Aaron Boone told Jomboy Media that Luis Gil could return to the majors as soon as Sunday in Miami, depending on how his rehab start goes Tuesday night. Gil is scheduled to throw 75 pitches for Double-A Somerset, and if he checks every box, the Yankees may slot him right into the big-league rotation this weekend. Gil hasn't pitched in the majors since undergoing Tommy John surgery in 2022. But the 26-year-old right-hander has worked his way through a cautious buildup in the minors, showing flashes of the swing-and-miss stuff that made him an electric presence during his 2021 debut. So far in five rehab outings, Gil has racked up 22 strikeouts across 14.2 innings, with a fastball that's hovered around 96 mph. The command is still coming—but the Yankees may not have the luxury of waiting much longer. With Gerrit Cole lost for the season following Tommy John surgery in March and Clarke Schmidt out as well, the Yankees are running out of reliable arms. They've been linked to multiple starters on the trade market but remain hesitant to overpay in a seller's market. That's where Gil could change the equation. If he's sharp Tuesday night and recovers well, Sunday in Miami could mark his long-awaited return to the big leagues—and a much-needed internal boost for a rotation running on fumes. Whether the Yankees buy or stand pat, Luis Gil might be ready to help from within. This story was originally reported by Athlon Sports on Jul 29, 2025, where it first appeared.

Yankees star Jazz Chisholm Jr commits egregious baserunning blunder, faces social media backlash
New York Yankees star Jazz Chisholm Jr. took heat on social media on Saturday over a head-scratching baserunning blunder against his former team, the Miami Marlins. Chisholm was on first base in the top of the second inning with Paul Goldschmidt up at bat. The Yankees' batter popped up to Marlins' second baseman Xavier Edwards. Chisholm was too far off first base and got caught napping. Edwards then threw the ball to first for the inning-ending double play. Chisholm was criticized by the Yankees' announcers during the broadcast as well as fans on social media for the brain fart. Yankees manager Aaron Boone also received some backlash on social media. "What was Chisholm thinking?" Yankees play-by-play man Michael Kay asked. Color commentator Paul O'Neill was left in shock, saying, "What is going on?" Boone and first base coach Travis Chapman also had an animated conversation in the dugout. Chishlom said afterward he wouldn't have changed anything, adding that he was trying to be aggressive on the basepaths by forcing Edwards to possibly make an error. "I was just trying to be aggressive, already playing with both the middle infielders out there," he said, via The Athletic. "I saw something that I thought they were going to do. He deked it like he was going to do it. He didn't do it. Still trying to be aggressive because I played here before. I know how the field plays. Sometimes you get aggressive and you get caught up and you make an out." Boone said he didn't think about taking Chisholm out of the game. New York lost the game, 2-0. The Yankees only mustered up two hits on Miami. Chisholm was 0-for-2 with a walk and a strikeout.
