Yesterday, Tim Hill received the 2025 Tony Conigliaro Award, which recognizes a “Major Leaguer who has overcome adversity through the attributes of spirit, determination, and courage that were trademarks of Tony C."
Before Hill was selected in the 32nd round of the 2014 Draft, he lost his father, Jerry, to colon cancer at the start of his sophomore year of high school in 2007. Then, in 2015 during his first minor league spring training, Tim was diagnosed with Lynch Syndrome. Later, when Tim was 25, he was also diagnosed with Stage 3 colon cancer.
After enduring surgery, radiation, and chemotherapy, he was declared cancer-free in late 2016 and returned to baseball, eventually making his Major League debut in 2018. The 2026 season marked Hill’s ninth in the Majors 💙
The New York Mets lost and will miss the playoffs. At one point they were 45-24. They end the season at 83-79. An all-time disintegration. From the best record in the game to out of the postseason.
Jazz Chisholm Jr. in 152 games as a Yankee
38 HR
43 SB
6.3 War
It is genuinely baffling to me that everyone doesn’t see this guy as a bonafide star caliber player
Jazz Chisholm, Jr. is the 6th Yankee to have a 25 HR, 25 SB season.
He joins Bobby Bonds (1975), Rickey Henderson (1986), Alfonso Soriano (2002, '03), Alex Rodriguez (2004), and Curtis Granderson (2011).
