Following their recent poor performance, including a 4-0 loss to the Angels and three straight scoreless games, the New York Yankees called a players-only meeting led by veterans. Despite still leading in the American League in several offensive categories, the team has struggled, averaging nearly 10 strikeouts per game recently. Players like Cody Bellinger expressed confidence in the team’s potential, emphasizing that even the best teams go through rough patches. As a result, the management might take action at the upcoming trade deadline to boost the lineup amid concerns regarding some players' performances.
We had good talks, Bellinger said, per Nj.com. It's a little rut we're in, and we've got to get out of it. The good teams get out of it. I've got full confidence in the guys in here. We have such a talented team.
I think it's a little bit more highlighted because it's consecutive games, but I think it's just baseball. We've hit some hard balls, we've had some strikeouts and weak contact. I think people have been playing the game and we're going to continue doing it.
