The New York Yankees outfield is a topic of constant conversation, from the power duo of Aaron Judge and Giancarlo Stanton to the up-and-coming talents like Franchy Cordero and Oswaldo Cabrera, and even the lesser-known Aaron Hicks. However, out in the field, these outfielders are experiencing their own enjoyable moments and forming friendships that are incredibly strong.
As veterans, Judge and Stanton have always shared a strong bond. However, the Yankees’ captain is now developing a soft spot for the 24-year-old utility star, Oswaldo Cabrera, who often finds himself in the outfield. Recently, Cabrera took to Instagram to give a special shoutout to the team’s leader, referring to Judge as the “king.”
