The New York Yankees and superstar outfielder Aaron Judge failed to come to an agreement on a new contract before the slugger’s self-imposed deadline of Opening Day. As such, Judge can become a free agent following the season, though Yankees general manager Brian Cashman has said that the club will still try to re-sign the […]

The Yankees attempted to sign Aaron Judge. They reportedly offered him an extension worth $213 million over 7 years, which would have been more than what Mike Trout and Mookie Betts make annually. But Judge apparently turned down the offer and there is not expected to be an Aaron Judge extension. Judge previously stated that […]

The New York Yankees haven’t won a World Series since 2009. As one of the most storied franchises in all of baseball, they’ve been heavily criticized for years because of their failures in October.

The New York Yankees could find themselves mired by a scandal just before the onset of the 2022 MLB regular season. According to Brendan Kuty of NJ.com, a court has ruled that a previously unopened letter, which allegedly shows proof MLB covered up the Yankees’ sign-stealing scheme, be unsealed.

Former New York Yankees legend Goose Gossage is a baseball purist through and through. To say he’s not happy with the changes MLB has adopted over the past few years is an understatement.

The New York Yankees and the New York Mets rarely connect on trades. Being from the same area- and one with highly contentious fanbases- it makes sense that the two clubs would do everything in their power to not help one another. That’s why many have found the recent speculation swirling around a possible Jeff McNeil-Gleyber Torres […]

The New York Yankees and Brian Cashman have made the first big moves of their off-season, as they have churned the back-end of their roster by designating for assignment their once-promising prospect Clint Frazier and utility players Roughned Odor and Tyler Wade, as first reported by ESPN MLB Insider Jeff Passan.

The New York Yankees came up short once again in 2019, losing to the Houston Astros in the American League Championship Series. In the wake of another early playoff exit, executives around the league have wondered whether or not New York had enough starting pitching, especially given the success of the Houston Astros and the […]

The New York Yankees will have to wait another year to get a crack at their 28th World Series title. For the second time in three years, the Yankees were eliminated by the Houston Astros in the American League Championship Series, falling in six games, and in gut-wrenching fashion, to boot. So, as is usually […]

New York Yankees outfielder Mike Tauchman was thought to be lost for the season after he suffered a flexor strain in August.
