Ian Kennedy Continues to Impress in Arizona Fall »

New York Yankees pitching prospect Ian Kennedy, limited to just four minor league starts in 2009 due to surgery to repair an aneurysm in his pitching arm, made his third start of the Arizona Fall League season on Saturday.   Pitching for the Surprise Rafters, Kennedy pitched four innings, allowing two hits and one earned run while striking out [...]

Yankees-Angels Postponed: Why CC Sabathia Should Start »

Before Game 6 of the American League Championship Series was postponed just after 6 pm ET on Saturday, Yankees manager Joe Girardi had said that in the event of a rain out, scheduled starter Andy Pettitte would still start if the game was pushed back a day and CC Sabathia would start a possible Game 7 on Monday. While Pettitte is a veteran pitcher [...]

Game Six of the ALCS Postponed »

Game Six of the American League Championship Series was postponed to Sunday night at 8:20 p.m. due to rain. If necessary, the Los Angeles Angels of Anaheim and the New York Yankees will play Game 7 on Monday at 7:57 p.m. The weather wasn’t that bad in New York City today. When I went out to get lunch around two, it was about 60 degrees and [...]

New York Yankees: Why They Need To Win The ALCS In Six »

Playing at home is a bit like having the serve in tennis: It confers a distinct advantage. As between two evenly matched contestants, the one with the home field/serve will win most of the time. The Yankees "held serve" for two games at home, and then "broke the serve" of the Angels in the middle of three games played in Anaheim. It is this fact, [...]

Relax, Yankees Fans. It’s Going to be Alright »

Trust me, Yankees fans, it’s going to be fine. This is not 2004, this is not history repeating itself—or as Yogi Berra would say, “Déjà vu all over again.” There are so many differences between this team and the one that will forever be synonymous with being the only (probably first at some point) team to blow [...]

Aroldis Chapman Could Be In Attendance at Yankee »

The Aroldis Chapman sweepstakes have already begun. The Yankees, Mets, Rangers, Red Sox, and many other teams have already expressed their interest in the Cuban defector. Chapman has already arrived in the United States after being declared a free-agent and has started talks with Major League teams.  The Chapman Tour began about a week ago in [...]

Why Nick Swisher is the Only New York Yankee »

Let me startout by stating that I cannot stand the New York Yankees for the life of me, but there is one player that I will cheer for to have success. That player is Nick Swisher because he's everything a major league player should be. Swisher will never be one of the higher paid baseball players, but he'll always be the one having the most fun. [...]

ALCS Game Five: The Angels Won’t Die »

Alex Rodriguez is having a career-altering postseason. Nick Swisher? Not so much. No matter whether he's hitting left-handed or right-handed, whether he's swinging at fastballs or breaking balls, whether the pitch is a foot outside or right over the middle of the plate and thigh high, he is the surest out in the Yankee lineup right now. Don't get [...]

$200M Payroll + No World Series Title = Failed Season »

The 2009 New York Yankees came into the regular season with a lot of hope and promise. They splurged big time in their off-season by signing ace CC Sabathia, another ace in A.J. Burnett, and slugging first basemen Mark Teixeira. This was beginning to look like the most talented lineup and pitching staff that the Yankees have ever put out on the [...]

Yanks Two Young Arms Misfiring »

  Phil Hughes is showing his age, or lack thereof.   The 23-year-old right-hander, who excelled in the bullpen throughout the regular season, has been shaky thus far in the postseason.   Thursday night, Hughes had an opportunity to shut the door on the Angels and send the Yankees to the World Series for the first time since [...]
