Yankees 1B Paul Goldschmidt Has a Right Knee Sprain and May Go on IL
The Mets and Yankees have each lost division leads due to pitching struggles and injuries, including MVP front-runner Aaron Judge, with Mets starters ranking near the bottom in ERA since mid-June.
- On Aug 13, 2025, New York Mets and New York Yankees saw their division leads fade after both experienced losing streaks and key injuries.
- Since June 13, the Yankees' rotation faltered after losing Clarke Schmidt for the season and Max Fried's decline following July, while Judge missed nearly two weeks with a flexor strain.
- Amid bullpen struggles, FanSided's Robert Murray suggested the Yankees could place closer Devin Williams on waivers, noting 'Williams has been a disaster of epic proportions in the Bronx and seems very likely to be a one-and-done.'
- Despite their division slump, the New York Mets will play in October without a division-round bye, and the New York Yankees remain in a wild-card spot but have lost their division lead.
- Looking ahead, FanGraphs states the Yankees have the league's easiest schedule, while the Mets rely on depth with Brandon Nimmo and Kodai Senga.
