The Detroit Tigers added another key piece to their roster on Friday, signing former New York Yankees infielder Gleyber Torres to a one-year, $15 million deal in free agency. Following the news, Tigers GM Scott Harris said Torres will slot in as the team’s everyday second baseman in 2025. Via Bob Nightengale: Gleyber Torres will […]

The MLB offseason has already produced a handful of big moves, but there are still some great options available on the market for teams to scoop up. One of them came off the board on Friday morning, though, as Gleyber Torres ended up signing with the Detroit Tigers after the New York Yankees let him […]

The Washington Nationals stagnated last season, posting the exact same record they did in 2023 (71-91). Fans are still optimistic about the young talent that populates the roster, but a veteran bat could help nudge the rebuild along. President of baseball operations Mike Rizzo identified Gleyber Torres as a player to fill that role, but […]

Less than two months ago, Gleyber Torres was leading off for the New York Yankees in the World Series. Now, they have publicly said they are moving on from Torres in free agency. So the second baseman is at the Winter Meetings looking for a new home. MLB Network’s Jon Morosi reported that the Los […]

Those holding out hope for a Gleyber Torres reunion with the New York Yankees were hit with a harsh dose of reality from general manager Brian Cashman on Monday. Speaking at the 2024 MLB Winter Meetings, Cashman said prospect Caleb Durbin is the current favorite to play second base for the Yankees next year, according […]

As the bidding for superstar outfielder Juan Soto reportedly escalates above $700 million, a few teams still remain in the hunt. Both New York teams, the Yankees and Mets, currently have the biggest offers on the table. The Boston Red Sox, Toronto Blue Jays and Los Angeles Dodgers are behind them but still very much […]

After the Los Angeles Dodgers won the World Series, the Yankees plan to adjust their roster in the hopes of making it back there next season, but with different results. To do that, though, they must first re-sign Juan Soto and hope he agrees to a new deal. Otherwise, they’ll probably lose their best hitter […]

There is no doubt that the New York Yankees’ most pressing order of business this offseason is to keep Juan Soto in the Bronx. Soto was as good as advertised in his first season in pinstripes, tallying 8.1 WAR (per Fangraphs) across 157 games while forming a formidable duo with Aaron Judge in the middle […]

The New York Yankees came up short of winning the World Series in 2024, losing in five games to the Los Angeles Dodgers, and it was a painful one because Games 1 and 5 were very winnable if the team played serviceable defense. The Yankees went all in on a lot of expiring contracts this […]

The New York Yankees are on the verge of getting swept out of the World Series, and Yankees fans have had enough of watching their team flail through ugly at-bats. Two fans took matters into their own hands. With the Yankees already down 2-0 in the first inning of Game 4, leadoff hitter Gleyber Torres […]

As disastrous as the 2024 World Series has been for the New York Yankees, no player has taken more heat than Aaron Judge. The likely American League MVP has been a complete non-factor in three games against the Los Angeles Dodgers, and his manager considered moving him up to the lead-off spot prior to Game […]

Freddie Freeman’s historic walk-off Grand Slam in the 10th inning may be what people will remember about Game 1 of the 2024 World Series. But, just an inning before, it was looking like the New York Yankees would take a late 3-2 ninth inning lead over the Los Angeles Dodgers before the umpires made a […]

Few players on the 2024 New York Yankees have been more polarizing than Gleyber Torres. Statistically, he had one of the worst seasons of his career, hitting .257 with 15 home runs in 154 games (prior to this year, he was a .267 career hitter who averaged 27 homers per season). His struggles at the […]

The 2024 season was a rough one for the Miami Marlins, as the first year of new president of baseball operations Peter Bendix’s tenure was a rocky one. 2023 NL Manager of the Year Skip Schumaker told his team he would not return to manage the club in 2025, so the search for a new […]

The New York Yankees (92-65) were hoping to celebrate their 21st American League East title on Tuesday, but missed opportunities in a 5-3 loss to the Baltimore Orioles (87-70) will keep the champagne in storage for at least one more night. Despite notching three hits and an RBI, Gleyber Torres made arguably the biggest misstep […]

As the New York Yankees continue their push towards the postseason, the team still has certain holes to address. Their options to do that are limited, especially since the trade deadline has long passed. Any improvement must come internally, and it can happen. The Yankees have a number of stars who need to step up, […]

The New York Yankees are currently in the middle of their latest playoff push, so all cylinders need to be firing. Unfortunately, it seems as if a couple of them aren’t doing that. Following second baseman Gleyber Torres’ mental error and subsequent benching during Friday’s 8-5 loss to the Toronto Blue Jays, Yankees captain Aaron […]

The New York Yankees are fighting for first place in the AL East, and poor effort or mental gaffes won’t be tolerated in their chase for a division title. That was at least the case for Gleyber Torres last night. In the second inning of yesterday’s 8-5 loss to the Toronto Blue Jays, the Yankees […]

The New York Yankees are looking to incorporate Jazz Chisholm Jr. into their lineup after acquiring him in a trade from the Miami Marlins. He’s a versatile player, which helps the team, but they also have some players who aren’t keen on being moved to a new spot. Enter Gleyber Torres. Chisholm isn’t projected to […]

The New York Yankees were the best team in baseball for the first two-and-a-half months of the 2024 MLB season. Since then, they’ve been the worst, and with the MLB trade deadline approaching, Brian Cashman has seen enough. The Yankees’ general manager is in Tampa to assist the front office with preparation for the upcoming […]

The Yankees (53-32) remain firmly in the upper echelon of the MLB despite their recent skid. However, to win its first championship since 2009, New York must make crucial upgrades through the trade market before the league’s July 30th deadline. The club’s pitching staff has been its biggest sore spot recently, recording a 5.42 ERA […]

The New York Yankees enjoyed their best night of the season on Friday, embarrassing the Toronto Blue Jays 16-5 at the Rogers Centre.

Stroman took responsibility for the outburst after […]

Embattled New York Yankees second baseman Gleyber Torres is not part of his team’s lineup for the last game of the Subway Series against the New York Mets Wednesday night.

New York Yankees second baseman Gleyber Torres has been known to commit blunders on the field, much to the chagrin of the team’s fanbase. However, Torres’ latest error was his most egregious yet, and fans are now calling for his head like never before. In the top half of the third inning of Friday’s matchup […]

The New York Yankees are tied for the best record in baseball and have looked fairly unbeatable over the first couple of months of the 2024 MLB season, but that doesn’t mean that all of their players are making fans happy. While Aaron Judge and Juan Soto are two of the top candidates for AL […]

In an interleague battle, the New York Yankees came up just short against the San Diego Padres, losing 5-2 on Sunday. While a loss is never good, Gleyber Torres felt his effort at second base played a direct role in the Yankees taking a loss. Up 1-0 heading into the bottom of the sixth inning, […]

New York Yankees second baseman Gleyber Torres has gotten off to one of the worst starts of his career this year. The 27-year-old is slashing .208/.289/.562, but he finally had a positive moment in the Yankees’ 10-6 win over the Tampa Bay Rays on Sunday. Torres hit a three-run bomb to left field in the […]

The New York Yankees knocked off the Houston Astros by a final score of 5 to 3 on Saturday, and it was an eventful game to say the least. Manager Aaron Boone’s team got key performances from Juan Soto, who hit his first Major League home run as a New York Yankee, and pitcher Marcus […]

The New York Yankees are on a mission to improve their team following their failed 2023 postseason showing. The Yankees are mulling a contract extension with one of their prized second basemen. Gleyber Torres will need to impress Brian Cashman with a range of stats after the GM’s ominous comments. Brian Cashman provides fuel for […]

The Boston Red Sox and new president Craig Breslow specified that they are looking for a second baseman, and New York Yankees second baseman Gleyber Torres is reportedly in play through a trade, according to Rob Bradford of Audacy. Breslow spoke about targeting a right-handed second baseman during an appearance on WEEI. “(Tuesday) we talked […]

The World Series came to an end on Wednesday night as the Texas Rangers pulled away late in game five to earn the championship crown over the Arizona Diamondbacks. Now, the MLB offseason is underway. The New York Yankees envisioned themselves being the last team standing when the season began, but they ended up far […]

The New York Yankees’ 2023 season was one they wish to never experience again. Their 82-80 record is not terrible, but it is also largely cosmetic; the Yankees were six games below .500 as late as August 27th this season. Being merely above .500 isn’t anywhere close to the standard the Yankees set for themselves […]

The New York Yankees have not had a good season this year, and the team will be the first ones to tell you that. However, after a lackluster stretch that sent the team below .500, the Yankees have looked very good in their last three games against the Detroit Tigers. While the Tigers aren’t the […]

The New York Yankees are down bad right now. They’ve lost six in a row and have a very slim chance of making the AL Wild Card, sitting seven games back of the final berth. Their struggles continued on Friday, losing 8-3 to the Boston Red Sox, falling to 2-8 in their last 10 contests. […]

The Miami Marlins have been one of the surprise teams this season in the MLB.

They’re one of the number of teams this season that are all vying to make it to the […]

The New York Yankees are in an interesting spot when it comes to the MLB Trade Deadline that is approaching on Tuesday. They are close enough where you could argue that they should be buyers, but they have enough holes and deficiencies to justify selling. The Yankees have needed a left fielder for a while […]
