New York Yankees Hall of Famer Goose Gossage has delivered pointed criticism of current Yankees outfielder Jazz Chisholm Jr., according to a report published Monday. The former reliever, known for his outspoken commentary on the modern game, did not hold back in his assessment of the 26-year-old Bahamian star.
The remarks come after Chisholm's first postseason with the Yankees, which included an American League Division Series matchup against the Tampa Bay Rays at Tropicana Field on October 3, 2026. Chisholm, wearing No. 13, was photographed during batting practice ahead of Game 1.
Specific details of Gossage's critique were not disclosed in the initial report. The eight-time All-Star and 1978 World Series champion has previously questioned contemporary player movement, celebration styles, and analytical approaches during his media appearances.
Chisholm, acquired by New York in a midseason trade, batted .273 with 11 home runs in 46 regular-season games for the Yankees after joining from the Miami Marlins.
