The New York Yankees are coming off a loss in an instant classic to the Seattle Mariners. A 1-0 defeat after 13 innings is just the latest loss in a major slump for the Yankees. New York tallied three hits and four walks but only put two players on base themselves (both by walk, one of […]

It hasn’t been a rosy second half of the 2022 MLB season so far for Aaron Boone and the New York Yankees. After getting swept in a three-game series by the St. Louis Cardinals, the Yankees are now on a five-game losing skid, prompting Boone to make a move that he hopes would nip the […]

A little more than a year after acquiring Joey Gallo in a deal before the MLB trade deadline, the New York Yankees shipped off their disappointing outfielder to the Los Angeles Dodgers in exchange for minor league right-hander Clayton Beeter on Tuesday. Gallo struggled mightily during his tenure in New York, notching a paltry .159 […]

Whenever the New York Yankees and New York Mets face off, it leads to an entertaining brand of baseball. That was the case once again on Tuesday with the Mets hosting the Yankees. Despite owning MLB’s best record, the Yankees dropped Game 1 of the this two game set by a final score of 6-3. […]

On Tuesday night, the New York Yankees began their subway series against the New York Mets. Yankees starting pitcher Jordan Montgomery was on the hill for the Yankees, which had typically been a good thing this year. Not Tuesday night. After being spotted a two-run lead in the first inning, Montgomery quickly coughed it up. […]

On Sunday, the New York Yankees took the rubber game against the Baltimore Orioles, 6-0. In the win, Yankees slugger Aaron Judge hit his major league-leading 37th home run of the season. It was a monster shot too, traveling 456 feet before landing in the stands of Camden Yards. But it’s what he said prior […]

The New York Yankees are an excellent baseball team. However, they are facing questions in reference to their bullpen. Star reliever Michael King recently suffered a fractured right elbow injury.

The New York Yankees have been the best team in baseball for majority of the 2022 MLB season. But they got their crown rocked in their two-game series against the Houston Astros. The two top teams in the American League played each other in a double-header, with the Astros coming out on top in both […]

New York Yankees reliever Aroldis Chapman had a forgettable stint in his first game back from a trip to the 15-day injured list, as he was nowhere near this top form during Game 1 of Saturday’s doubleheader on the road against the Cleveland Guardians.

The New York Yankees managed to stage a stunning comeback against the Houston Astros and win in the bottom of the 10th inning courtesy of an Aaron Judge 3-run walk-off homer.

The team continues to win on a consistent basis and the bullpen has been electric. Clay Holmes has been […]

The success of the New York Yankees’ bullpen leaves Aaron Boone with some difficult decisions to make.

With the hard-throwing […]

The New York Yankees have received a major boost offensively in the form of Matt Carpenter. The Yankees got him, practically for nothing, after every other team passed up on the chance to claim him after he was let go by the Texas Rangers in spring. Since making his move out to the Bronx and […]

The New York Yankees’ bullpen has stepped up despite a flurry of injuries early on in the year.

Manager Aaron Boone […]

New York Yankees slugger Josh Donaldson was suspended one game after some controversial comments he made in the direction of Chicago White Sox shortstop Tim Anderson. After reportedly calling Anderson “Jackie” in reference to Jackie Robinson, Donaldson’s comments sparked significant blowback from the White Sox as well as fans across the league. Donaldson’s own teammates […]

The New York Yankees are enjoying a tremendous season overall. Their pitching staff has been surprisingly dominant, they are winning games left and right, and Aaron Judge is posting MVP caliber numbers. But two important pieces to the puzzle have endured dreadful seasons up to this point. Joey Gallo is hitting under .170 with 52 […]

New York Yankees slugger Giancarlo Stanton is temporarily out of commission, as he’s hit the 10-day injury list with a lower-body injury that was initially thought as a right calf strain. That’s not the case apparently, with Yankees manager Aaron Boone clarifying on Wednesday that Stanton’s issue is an ankle inflammation, per Lindsey Adler of […]

White Sox manager Tony LaRussa characterized the comment […]

The new dimensions in left field at Camden Yards have not received rave reviews from hitters. New York Yankees slugger Aaron Judge, who hit two home runs in Tuesday night’s 5-4 win over the Orioles, almost had a third dinger had it not been for the left-field wall being 30-feet deeper and 5-feet higher than […]

New York Yankees star outfielder Aaron Judge continued his torrid start to the season by terrorizing the Baltimore Orioles at Camden Yards on Tuesday night, going 4-for-5 with a pair of home runs, a double and three RBI to lead the club to a 5-4 victory. However, Judge’s first-inning double, which traveled 399 feet to […]

Texas Rangers manager Chris Woodward called out Yankees’ infielder Gleyber Torres for hitting a “little league home run” on his walk-off blast in Sunday’s Yankees victory. Woodward’s comments were in regards to the short right field porch in Yankee Stadium. However, it was a rather unnecessary statement and proved to be a fairly bad look […]

New York Yankees manager Aaron Boone had an unceremonious exit in their 1-2 loss to the Toronto Blue Jays on Wednesday. Boone had grown frustrated over the strike zone being given to Yankees star Aaron Judge, who stands at a hulking 6’7″ and got called for strikes on pitches around his knees. That’s when he […]

It was a frustrating night on Wednesday for the New York Yankees, who were defeated by the Toronto Blue Jays 2-1.

As a result, patience was running thin- and the perceived off-kilter strike zone of home plate umpire Marty […]

The New York Yankees defeated the Cleveland Guardians 4-1 at Yankee Stadium on Friday night.

The New York Yankees made baseball fans everywhere upset when manager Aaron Boone deprived Detroit Tigers legend Miguel Cabrera of the opportunity to record his 3,000th hit.

Miguel Cabrera has yet to earn his 3,000th career hit, despite four more plate appearances for the Detroit Tigers star Thursday afternoon.

The Detroit Tigers faced the New York Yankees at Comerica Park with a chance to witness history.

After doing nothing with his first three […]

The New York Yankees had quite a series to forget in Baltimore, as they dropped two out of three games to the Orioles. Over the course of the series, the Yankees were marred by their continual struggles on offense. In the two games that they lost to the Orioles, they combined to hit 3-14 with […]

The New York Yankees are off to a mediocre record of 4-4 to kickoff the 2022 MLB season. In the past week, the team has surrendered a three home run game to Vladimir Guerrero Jr., watched Aroldis Chapman blow up on the mound, and struggled to drive in runs in a loss against the lackluster […]

If you had to guess how Aroldis Chapman was doing based off of the reactions of New York Yankee fans, you would guess he has an ERA of infinity and is on his way out of baseball. But the closer has an ERA of 0.00 in all reality heading into April 16th’s game against the […]

The New York Yankees have no shortage of giant players on their roster. Whether it is the hulking Aaron Judge or Giancarlo Stanton, or even Joey Gallo, the roster is full of big guys with plenty of power. This can make selecting a designated hitter difficult. Typically, DHs are a team’s greatest power bat who […]
