The New York Yankees are one of the best teams in MLB with a 91-58 record, and it’s frightening to think they could have been even better had things broke Miguel Andujar’s way. After a sterling rookie campaign in 2018 when he hit an impressive 27 home runs to go along with 92 runs batted […]

New York Yankees manager Aaron Boone dropped a key update on reliever Zack Britton on Tuesday. Britton, who is recovering from elbow surgery, was once considered one of the best relievers in baseball. However, he has not pitched since 2021. “I know he’s doing really well,” Boone said. “I’ve not wanted to put that kind […]

The New York Yankees have been holding on for dear life recently as their lead atop the American League East continues to shrink.

The New York Yankees are reportedly working Oswald Cabrera out at first base, per Bryan Hoch of MLB.com. Cabrera has experience at multiple positions in both the infield and outfield.

Well, this has got to be the lowest point for the New York Yankees, right? It seemed like ages ago that the Bronx Bombers were once the feared dominators of the American League. Their hitters sent balls flying out of the park. Their pitchers threw fireballs no mortal could ever hit. They were unstoppable. Now, […]

New York Yankees fans have pretty high standards for shortstops after all the years they have been spoiled by the play of a guy named Derek Jeter. So seeing Isiah Kiner-Falefa struggle in fielding balls this season is only bound to force those same fans to march to Twitter with their virtual torches and pitchforks. […]

The New York Yankees haven’t looked like the same team that raced out of the gate at a record pace earlier in the season.

The New York Yankees have just placed reliever Aroldis Chapman on the injury list. Apparently, the 34-year-old sustained some sort of infection on his leg.

This is not how the second half of the season should’ve gone for the New York Yankees. A few months ago, the pinstripes were on top of the baseball world. They were hitting bombs everywhere.

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.

On Tuesday night, the New York Yankees began their subway series against the New York Mets.

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.

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.

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.

With the hard-throwing […]
