New York Yankees: Prospect Dellin Betances Makes 2010 »

It seems like Dellin Betances has been in the New York Yankee's system forever. And for Betances, who was considered a top minor league pitcher, it has been.

MLB Trade Rumors: New York Yankees Do Not Need David »

There have many reports which have Kansas City Royals outfielder David DeJesus being available in trade. And why not?

The big stat, however, was the two home runs, a solo job to David Ortiz and a three-run jack to the newly-rejuvenated J.D. Drew. Ortiz was almost on [...]

New York Yankees’ Brett Gardner Excelling in His »

Since the Curtis Granderson injury, Brett Gardner has stopped being platooned with Marcus Thames in left field. Gardner is now the starting center fielder and is making the most out of his opportunity. Not that the opportunity wasn't warranted in the first place. I have repeatedly said that Gardner should have been the starting center fielder, [...]
