🚨🚨🚨JAZZ BOMBSHELL?: Jazz Chisholm just shook the baseball world with strong words about his future in pinstripes, and his comments have sparked a wave of speculation about whether he’s hinting at a long-term Yankees stay or teasing a dramatic exit. The buzz has fans torn between celebrating him as the spark New York desperately needs or worrying that his bold stance could fracture the clubhouse. One thing is clear: a routine interview has now turned into a viral storyline that might reshape the Yankees’ next big move.

Jazz Chisholm is only in his first full season with the New York Yankees, and he is hoping that there are still plenty more to come.

The Yankees infielder Chisholm made history on Friday night with a big game against the Baltimore Orioles at Oriole Park in Baltimore, Md. Chisholm hit a two-run shot in the seventh inning off Baltimore reliever Dietrich Enns, marking his 30th home run of the year. That gave Chisholm 30 home runs on the season, officially making him a member of the 30-30 club (as he has also stolen exactly 30 bases this year).

Chisholm became just the third player in Yankees franchise history to post a 30-30 season with the team (after the late Bobby Bonds in 1975 and Alfonso Soriano in 2002).

Speaking with reporters after the game, Chisholm made some strong comments about his future. The 27-year-old Chisholm, who arrived in a 2024 trade with the Miami Marlins, indicated that he would like to be a Yankee for life.

“I just feel like when I’m here in New York, I’m not going to lie, I feel the energy of the fans,” said Chisholm, per Chris Kirschner of The Athletic. “They get me going every day. It gives me something to play for every day. I got my teammates here, and we love playing here. We love being a part of the Yankees. We love playing together. They push me a lot.

“I don’t want to leave New York,” Chisholm went on. “If you’ve ever played here, you would never want to leave. At the end of the day, it just depends on if they want me. That’s the difference. Do they want a 40-40 player? You tell me.”

Chisholm, now a two-time All-Star after earning a nod this season, is still under contract with the Yankees for the 2026 campaign before potentially becoming a free agent. As a 4.2-WAR player for the team this year as well, Chisholm’s value to the Yankees has been undeniable.

The lefty-hitting Chisholm still has his detractors, who mainly point to his low batting average (.242 this season) as well as his tendency to both make errors in the field and to commit ugly mental mistakes. But Chisholm also offers a power-speed combo that is hard to come by, and he is hoping that he has already done enough to earn another contract from the Yankees.
