Addressing the media on Monday, Aaron Judge expressed to NY Daily News about his confidence in the team’s abilities, stating, “I can sit here and explain a lot of things, but it comes down to us going out there and doing it.” He stressed the importance of letting their performance on the field do the talking, rather than relying solely on words to convey their intentions.
Aaron Judge says the #Yankees have had a "different level of focus" this spring. "It's just been a great energy all camp… Everybody here is ready to get things rolling."

“We got to let our game speak for itself, and that’s what we plan on doing this year,” Aaron Judge remarked, highlighting the team’s determination to demonstrate their capabilities through their actions.
During the offseason, the Yankees made strategic additions to bolster their roster after a disappointing previous season. Bringing in players like Juan Soto to enhance lineup protection, as well as Alex Verdugo and Trent Grisham to strengthen the outfield rotation, reflects the team’s commitment to improvement. Additionally, acquisitions such as Victor González and Caleb Ferguson for the bullpen, along with Marcus Stroman for the starting rotation, aim to shore up critical areas of the team.
However, Aaron Judge attributed his confidence in the team’s prospects not only to these roster changes but also to a noticeable shift in mindset and preparation. He spoke of a “different level of focus” among the players during camp, signaling a renewed determination and readiness to excel in the upcoming season.
“It’s just been a great energy all camp…Everybody here is ready to get things rolling,” Judge remarked, highlighting the positive atmosphere within the team as they gear up for the challenges ahead.
With the regular season set to commence on Thursday against the Houston Astros, the Yankees are poised to demonstrate their readiness to compete at the highest level. Judge’s remarks underscore the team’s commitment to letting their performance on the field speak for itself, as they strive to reclaim their position as a dominant force in Major League Baseball.
