It may be #RivalryWeekend, but there's nothing but respect between two of New York's superstars. Francisco Lindor has watched Aaron Judge's historic career unfold, and 2022 was no different when Judge broke the AL home run record during his MVP season. @Lindor12BC | @Mets x @TheJudge44 | @Yankees #SubwaySeries

Congratulations to @Burgatron13, who was named the Players Trust's Most Valuable Philanthropist for May! The @Rangers infielder was awarded a $10,000 grant in support of his work helping individuals with Down syndrome and their families through the Burger Family Foundation. The Players Trust’s MVP award will be given six times this season to Players who demonstrate an altruistic spirit and positive social impact beyond the diamond. Congrats again, Jake! trust.mlbplayers.com/2026mvpprogram

Jake and Ashlyn Burger started the Burger Family Foundation after their daughter, Penelope, was born with Down syndrome on October 25, 2024. The foundation’s mission is to provide direct financial assistance for people with Down syndrome and their families.   As the Burgers and other families celebrate Mother’s Day, Ashlyn shares this message about individuals with Down syndrome:   “They’re extremely capable individuals, and they deserve to be in every room that everybody else is in … disability is its special ability to see the world through a different lens, (with) a little bit more joy. They deserve to be there as well.’’   For more information on the Burger Family Foundation, click the link below: burgerfamilyfoundation.org/about

Wouldn't be who they are today without these amazing women. 💕 #MothersDay

Investing in Players pays off

Big pull for brand new Big Leaguer, Travis Bazzana! Travis has had plenty of big hits in his career, but maybe his biggest hit yet was off the field, when he pulled this Miggy Cabrera 1/1 @Topps card for the Players Collection! The patch featured is the Marlins 10th Anniversary patch from 2003 — Miggy’s rookie year… when they just so happened to win the World Series. Insane amount of history in this card, and pulled by one of the game’s rising stars to top it all off! @PSAcard

10 Years of Service Time: the Holy Grail for Players. Throughout history, fewer than 10% of Players have possessed the combination of talent, health, resilience, perseverance and good fortune to achieve the feat. We round out our April highlights with the most recent member to join the Ten Years fraternity: Trea Turner! Turner was chosen in the first round of the 2014 draft by the San Diego Padres. He went on to debut with the Washington Nationals before stints with the Dodgers and Phillies. Turner broke out in 2016, hitting .342 and finishing second in Rookie of the Year voting, and he hasn’t slowed down since. The Florida native has three All-Star appearances, two batting titles, three top 10 MVP finishes, a Silver Slugger award and a World Series ring to his name, solidifying him as one of the star shortstops in baseball. Congratulations on reaching 10 Years of Service Time, Trea!

10 Years of Service Time: the Holy Grail for Players. Throughout history, fewer than 10% of Players have possessed the combination of talent, health, resilience, perseverance and good fortune to achieve the feat. This April, Taylor Rogers joined the Ten Years fraternity! Rogers was selected out of the University of Kentucky by the Minnesota Twins in the 11th round of the 2012 draft. He has been a bullpen mainstay, 30-save closer and an All-Star over 10 seasons with the Twins and five other clubs since his MLB debut in 2016. When his identical twin brother, Tyler, made his debut in 2019, the pair became the 10th set of twins to play in the majors. Taylor has saved 83 games and struck out over 630 throughout his career. Welcome to the brotherhood, Taylor!

10 Years of Service Time: the Holy Grail for Players. Throughout history, fewer than 10% of Players have possessed the combination of talent, health, resilience, perseverance and good fortune to achieve the feat. This April, Sean Manaea joined the Ten Years fraternity! Manaea was selected in the first round of the 2011 draft by Kansas City. He spent the first six seasons of his Major League career with the Oakland Athletics before stints in San Diego, San Francisco and the Mets. The Indiana native has started over 200 games and struck out over 1,200 hitters throughout his career. Congratulations, Sean, on reaching 10 Years of Service Time!

10 Years of Service Time: the Holy Grail for Players. Throughout history, fewer than 10% of Players have possessed the combination of talent, health, resilience, perseverance and good fortune to achieve the feat. In April, Ketel Marte joined the Ten Years fraternity! Marte was 17 years old when he signed with the Mariners as an international free agent out of his native Dominican Republic in 2011. He spent two seasons with Seattle before being traded to the Arizona Diamondbacks, where he went on to become one of baseball’s most dynamic players. Ketel has made three All-Star teams, won two Silver Slugger Awards, finished top five in MVP voting twice, and become a cornerstone of the Arizona franchise. Congratulations, Ketel!

10 Years of Service Time: the Holy Grail for Players. Throughout history, fewer than 10% of Players have possessed the combination of talent, health, resilience, perseverance and good fortune to achieve the feat. Each month throughout the 2026 season, we recognize the newest members of the Ten Years fraternity! Today, we shine a light on Byron Buxton. Buck was selected second overall in the 2012 draft by Minnesota, where he has spent his entire professional career. The Georgia native has gained a reputation for home run power and strong outfield defense since making his debut in 2015, with two All-Star selections, a Silver Slugger, and a Platinum Glove to his name. Welcome to the fraternity, Byron!

A missed call from his manager while at the movies. Bumper-to-bumper traffic on a long drive from Syracuse to D.C. A hectic few hours led to Trea Turner's dreams coming true as he made his MLB debut in 2015. Today, as Trea officially notches 10 Years of Service Time, he reflects on his road to the show and the people who have made a lasting impact along the way. Congratulations Trea, on reaching Ten Years! @Phillies

Congratulations to Matt Boyd, who is kicking off the season as a 2026 Players Trust Most Valuable Philanthropist! @mattboyd48 is being recognized for his charitable work with Kingdom Home in Uganda.
