Aaron Judge has continued his dominance with the Yankees through the first two months of the 2023 MLB season, fresh off of signing a massive deal to remain in New York last offseason.
But before the four-time All-Star signed his nine-year, $360 million contract to stay with the Yankees, Judge mistakenly became the center of a popular MLB meme when a report containing a rather glaring typo suggested that his time in the Bronx was coming to an end.

Long dubbed secondary offerings, sliders are gaining on fastballs in 2023.
Churchill Downs, the most tradition-steeped thoroughbred racetrack in America, bucked tradition in bombshell fashion Friday. It announced that it is shutting down its spring meet at the tragedy-scarred track and moving operations to Ellis Park in Henderson, Ky., next week. The meet will remain there through its conclusion in early July.
This is in response to a spate of horse deaths—12 of them in a month’s time—and it is a departure from the industry’s old-school mindset.
Blackouts may become increasingly less common in MLB thanks to a recent court ruling.
The seeming progress all stems from the Diamond Sports Group bankruptcy earlier this year.
Diamond, which operates the Bally Sports networks, has been missing payments to multiple teams since the season started.
MLB’s contention has been that the missed payments trigger a rights reversion. Essentially, if Diamond doesn’t fulfill their obligations, the team would then take back control of their own media rights.
One team, the San Diego Padres, has already taken back control.
Much has already been said this offseason about the Packers’ anticipated transition from Aaron Rodgers to Jordan Love. But, thanks to Green Bay receiver Romeo Doubs, the conversation once again took center stage on Friday.
Doubs, a fourth-round pick in 2022, offered an eye-opening assessment of what he expects to see in 2023 when asked during a recent interview if he saw a difference in Love ahead of his first season as QB1.
As one of the NFL’s most decorated signal-callers, Rodgers’ blockbuster trade to the Jets left a sizable void in the organization.
The Suns are finalizing a five-year deal to name Frank Vogel as the team’s new coach, sources told ESPN’s Adrian Wojnarowski. Vogel, who led the Lakers to the 2020 NBA title, would replace Monty Williams.
The bizarre search for notorious Chiefs superfan Xavier Michael Babudar took yet another turn this week as he remains on the run after skipping a March court appearance in connection to an alleged 2022 bank robbery.
The Greater Kansas City Crime Stoppers tabbed Babudar, known by Chiefs faithful as the wolf costume-wearing “ChiefsAholic,” as a special person of interest after adding him to its list of most wanted fugitives.
The summary of the offense associated with Babudar’s listing is described by the organization as “failure to appear in court warrant for bank robbery.
Things sound to be off to a good start between New England Patriots quarterback Mac Jones and one of his new offensive targets, Juju Smith-Schuster.
Jones said that he and Smith-Schuster meshed quickly and he talked to reporters about how Smith-Schuster — fresh off of drawing a Super Bowl-winning hold — has become a team leader.
“I think JuJu’s done a great job, also from a leadership standpoint,” Jones said according to NESN. “Coming in, that’s someone who adds veteran leadership from different places.
