Yankees' Derek Jeter Sends Strong Advice to Jed Hoyer, Cubs Heading Into MLB Trade Deadline originally appeared on Athlon Sports. The Chicago Cubs front office already knows what they need to do. From Jed Hoyer's perspective, this is as big of a trade deadline as ever.

Crow-Armstrong played five innings in the first of what he hopes will be many All-Star appearances. It was a strong response after a hectic beginning, when he was “honestly just getting distracted every couple of milliseconds” during pregame introductions.

Yankees general manager Brian Cashman has been open about the team’s desire to improve at the deadline. One player New York continues to be linked to is Arizona Diamondbacks third baseman Eugenio Suárez. Fresh off his second All-Star appearance, Suarez appears to be generating plenty of buzz around the MLB.

Jazz Chisholm Jr. had a Home Run Derby to forget Monday, and Major League Baseball's official social-media account appeared to have some fun with the situation.

After opening their series against the Cubs Friday night with an 11-0 annihilation that marked their fifth straight victory, which came on the heels of a six-game losing streak, the Yankees were flat with the bats two straight games and skidded into the All-Star break with a 4-1 loss Sunday afternoon in front of 45,435 at the Stadium.

We were holding our breath (hoping) it was going to be Dax on our board,” said Damon Oppenheimer, their VP of domestic amateur scouting.

Shota Imanaga struck out Aaron Judge twice while pitching seven sparkling innings, leading the Chicago Cubs to a 4-1 victory over the New York Yankees.

The Yankees enter the second half of the 2025 season two games back in the AL East and with holes to fill at the trade deadline.
