Yesterday, the Yankees kicked off their 2023 spring training schedule, and today we tick another milestone on the road to the regular season. Today, the Yankees are set to play their first split-squad game day. Some of the Yankees will stay at the friendly confines of GMS Field to take on the Braves, while others will be headed on the road to take on the Blue Jays.
As is typical, the home spring training game features a bit of a stronger lineup, including the spring debut of the one and only Aaron Judge. The new Yankees captain will see his first action as part of a lineup that also includes Gleyber Torres, Aaron Hicks, Jose Trevino, and Oswald Peraza.
