As the New York Yankees commence their 2025 spring training, the mood among players is notably intense, driven by last season's World Series loss to the Los Angeles Dodgers. Captain Aaron Judge expresses that the disappointment of being on the verge of victory creates a greater hunger for success this year. Manager Aaron Boone also observes high morale, with players arriving early to prepare for the season. Changes are evident in the team's lineup, particularly the departure of star outfielder Juan Soto, representing a fresh chapter for the franchise trying to reclaim championship glory.
This year's feeling is even worse, considering they were on the cusp of winning the whole thing... Getting to the dance and then losing out is definitely a lot worse than not even getting in.
Definitely some great energy so far. Guys are motivated. Guys are ready to go.
Players had come down to Tampa early, ready to get to work... I’m encouraged by what I've seen across the street at the club's minor league complexes.
The Yankees enter training camp looking quite a bit different from the year prior. Most notably, they will march into 2025 without superstar outfielder Juan Soto.
