The New York Yankees pitching has been nothing short of unstoppable over the past month. From top to bottom, from the starting rotation to the bullpen, the staff has been unbelievable. Gerrit Cole, Nestor Cortes, Clay Holmes and company are simply destroying the opposition. Across their last three games, the Yankees have allowed just six […]

Just a day after Jameson Taillon took a perfect game into the eighth inning for the New York Yankees, Gerrit Cole did a lot of the same on Friday night in a 13-0 win over the Detroit Tigers. The hard-throwing righty flirted with history as well, throwing a perfect 6.2 innings before Jonathan Schoop laced […]

For the second straight game, the New York Yankees flirted with a perfect game. After Jameson Taillon, it was Gerrit Cole’s time to shine.

Houston Astros ace Justin Verlander has gotten off to an incredible start to the 2022 MLB season, looking to be in peak Cy Young form through his team’s first 32 games.

The New York Yankees are firing on all cylinders as they sit atop the American League East while dominating Major League Baseball.

After back-to-back sluggish showings against the Toronto Blue Jays and Detroit Tigers, Gerrit Cole orchestrated a keen bounce-back performance in the New York Yankees’ 10-2 win over the Cleveland Guardians on Sunday. Cole was simply electric on the day; he logged 6.2 innings pitched to go along with zero earned runs and nine strikeouts. From […]

It is now 13 games through the New York Yankees’ season and with that comes some early season overreactions. Baseball presents more of these than perhaps any other sport due to the 162-game schedule. I know, this season isn’t 162 games, but you get the point. Because of the long, strenuous schedule, even the game’s […]

New York Yankees starting pitcher Gerrit Cole had a rough outing on Tuesday night against the Detroit Tigers.

After Opening Day was rained out on Thursday, the New York Yankees and Boston Red Sox began their respective seasons on Friday with an afternoon game in the Bronx.

Gerrit Cole is now a staple of the New York Yankees organization, but that wasn’t always the case.

The Red Sox and Yankees rivalry never gets old. Ever since Boston traded Babe Ruth to the Yankees 100 years ago and the Curse of the Bambino was born there is always something stoking the fire between these two. This time it was Boston’s Christian Vasquez talking trash on Instagram Live. His message was directed […]

The MLB lockout has no end in sight at the moment, as Spring Training games have been canceled, with regular season games potentially next to be sacrificed.

New York Yankees ace Gerrit Cole has tested positive for COVID-19 and has been scratched from his start on Tuesday against the Baltimore Orioles.
