Speaking to the media on Friday, Chisholm would be asked about being excited for the new season to approach closer, as Spring Training is right around the corner. He would even go as far as to say that he envisions 2026 to be a "big year" for New York.
"I can't wait," Chisholm said, according to SNY Yankees. "I can't wait to get out there. 2026 is coming up, and I think it's going to be a big year for the Yankees. I think us as a team, knowing each other as well as we do, this is our third season together for almost half of the team. I think it's going to be a good year."

"I think it was fine. For me, we've made it to the playoffs back-to-back years. Haven't delivered the final blow, but I feel like, at the same time, this team is really good. Really confident in this team & we trust each other a lot to go to the playoffs and go win it," Chisholm said.
At any rate, Chisholm looks to build off of himself after recording a .242 batting average to go along with 31 home runs, 80 RBIs, and 31 stolen bases. As a whole, New York tries to further improve after finishing with a 94-68 record, putting them second in the AL East, though the team was eliminated in the divisional series by the Toronto Blue Jays .
