Inside the Yankees’ Unseen Team Bonding Rituals That Could Change the Game
Well, here we are again — Sunday rolls around and it’s time for that weekly dive into everything buzzing across Yankees’ social media. Now, I don’t know about you, but after yet another brutal blast of Jack Frost nipping at New York’s nose—for the third time in just a month, mind you—I’m more than ready for this bone-chilling saga to wrap up. Thankfully, the calendar teases that spring training is just days away, with pitchers and catchers gearing up to hit the field any moment now. The long, dragging-awaited winter nightmare is slowly fading, and the chase for the 28th title is about to heat back up. Curious how the Bronx Bombers are spending their final moments before kickoff? Stick with me, and we’ll uncover all the off-field action happening before those first warm-up pitches fly.
It’s Sunday, and you know what that means — it’s time for our weekly social media roundup! For the third time in four weeks, Jack Frost has taken over New York City, with the wind chill reaching as low as 10 below. Fortunately, the countdown to spring training has reached the single digits, as pitchers and catchers report…this week! That’s right, folks, the long nightmarish winter is beginning to draw to a close, and in just a few days, the Chase for 28 will begin once more. How have the Yankees been spending their last few days before the big day? Let’s find out!
Team Building at the Stadium Series
Although pitchers and catchers don’t report until this week, many Yankees have arrived in Tampa to get some extra work in, much like they have done the past two seasons. It hasn’t been all work and no play, though, as they made sure to catch some hockey together at Raymond James Stadium, the home of the Tampa Bay Buccaneers (it was part of the NHL Stadium Series). From this, we can see that Austin Wells, Ben Rice, Max Fried, Aaron Judge, Anthony Volpe, Jasson Domínguez, Clarke Schmidt, Cam Schlittler, Will Warren, Chase Hampton, and new trade acquisition Ryan Weathers have already arrived in Tampa.
Warren and Schlittler, moreover, were mic’ed up during the game.
Celebrating Black History Month
February is Black History Month, and the Yankees took to social media to celebrate one of the most important players in Yankee history, Elston Howard.
Belli’s Back, Part III
For the third week in a row, we have some more about Cody Bellinger’s return to the Bronx — in this case, at long last, from the man himself. Just as significant as Bellinger’s post, though, is the number of teammates who responded to the post. Aaron Judge replied to Belli’s “Back in the BX” with “You never left!!” Austin Wells posted a trio of happy emojis. Ben Rice added “You are the greatest.” J.C. Escarra said, “Lesss run it🏃🏽♂️.” Even former Yankee Jameson Taillon, who was teammates with Bellinger in Chicago, celebrated the deal.
