Jazz Chisholm Jr. has been pretty effective in his short stint with the Yankees.
Earlier this week, Chisholm was traded to the Yankees from the Marlins in a blockbuster trade.
“Every kid dreams of being a Yankee” said Chisholm after the trade “it’s the most famous team in baseball that Derek Jeter played on, if you know what I mean. Everybody’s favorite player was Derek Jeter growing up. I had him as an owner [with the Marlins], so I just feel it was right to come up and put on a uniform.”
On Monday night, in his second game with the Yankees, Chisholm hit two home runs in the team’s 14-4 win over the Phillies.

Apparently, Chisholm used Judge’s bat to hit the two homers vs the Phillies.

It seems like Chisholm is going to fit right in with the Yankees.
