Captain America: Aaron Judge is first player named to Team USA for 2026 World Baseball Classic

Deesha Thosar MLB Writer <!--> NEW YORK — For the first time in his professional career, Aaron Judge wore a baseball hat that represented something other than the New York Yankees. "Got the right size," Judge said as he smiled and placed a fitted Team USA cap on his head. Of course, it was the right size, because Mark DeRosa had been dreaming about Judge representing the United States from the moment he agreed to become the manager of Team USA in the 2026 World Baseball Classic. He doesn't have to dream anymore. Judge and DeRosa formally announced on Monday afternoon at Yankee Stadium that he'll serve as the captain for Team USA in next year's much-anticipated global tournament. It will be Judge's first time participating in the WBC, and he's the first player to be named to the Team USA roster for […]

Is Mike Trout back?: The 10 best storylines that happened in MLB last week

Deesha Thosar MLB Writer <!--> Remember last week when Shohei Ohtani flexed on his bobblehead night? Apparently he started a trend because another All-Star decided to give the fans what they came for on Saturday night. Speaking of fans, over the weekend we saw a repeat of Mookie Betts' World Series Glove Gate, when an Astros fan decided to rip the ball out of Mike Trout's glove following a catch in foul territory on Saturday in Houston. Later, Trout met up with that same fan, signed the ball and made sure there was no love lost. Classic behavior from one of the nicest guys in the game. If you're hankering for more baseball highlights, then you're in luck. This year, we started a new series where we spotlight the 10 best storylines that happened in MLB each week. Here's a look […]

Aaron Judge named Team USA’s captain for 2026 World Baseball Classic

<!--> The United States' 2026 World Baseball Classic team announced the return of 2023's manager, Mark DeRosa, last week. And now, Team USA has its captain as well. That would be New York Yankees' star Aaron Judge, who will be making his first appearance in a WBC. Given he's literally Aaron Judge, though, who else would you want to name captain of Team USA if he's willing to play?Judge is a genuine superstar, and not just because of the team he plays for at his day job. Judge has won a pair of American League Most Valuable Player awards despite having to share the AL with Shohei Ohtani prior to 2024, and has batted an astounding .301/.419/.642 with 202 home runs since 2021. All with little sign of slowing down, either: he might be 33 years old, but he's begun the […]

Last Night in Baseball: Hall of Famer Joe Mauer gets a statue

<!--> There is always baseball happening — almost too much baseball for one person to handle themselves.That's why we're here to help, though, by sifting through the previous days' games, and figuring out what you missed, but shouldn't have. Here are all the best moments from this weekend in Major League Baseball:Joe Mauer gets a statueMinnesota Twins' great Joe Mauer was inducted into the Baseball Hall of Fame last summer, following one heck of a career — hey, given Mauer's polite, kind, everyone-loves-him image, saying one "hell" of a career just feels wrong here. He won three batting titles as a catcher when no other had ever won more than two, and put up Cooperstown-caliber numbers even with a career that was both shortened and derailed by injuries. And now, he has his own statue in Minnesota at Target Field:ADVERTISEMENT […]

"It’s kind of the life of a major league pitcher, these injuries that make you miss most of seasons."But I talked to him this morning, and he has a great attitude about it, as he always does. He knows that it’s part of the career he’s chosen, and he’s going to take it a step at a time […]
