The ALCS MVP Race Spelled Out: A-Rod or CC? »

If 2004 taught us anything, besides how to properly apply fake blood on a sock for profound effect, it would be to assume nothing. What you're about to read assumes absolutely nothing. Zilch. Nada. It lives solely in the moment. The Yankees played one of their best all-around games of the season on Tuesday night, a 10-1 win over the Angels that [...]

MLB Proves Once Again It Will Protect Players That »

The MLB finally had a chance to do the right thing in regards to a player that was caught cheating, but instead just as usual MLB turned its back on its fans! It's getting very old; this is the same MLB that allowed for steroids to become rampant. Who was MLB protecting this time? The answer is Mariano Rivera. On camera there's a clip that shows [...]

Yankees-Angels: Sabathia, Rodriguez Give New York 3-1 »

So much for CC Sabathia not being able to pitch in the postseason, huh? On just three days rest, New York Yankees ace CC Sabathia dominated the feeble Los Angeles Angels of Anaheim lineup and Alex Rodriguez hit yet another home run, as the Yankees crushed the Angels last night 10-1 to take a 3-1 lead in their best-of-seven ALCS. However, before [...]

Yankees-Angels ALCS: Sabathia, A-Rod Clutch in 10-1 »

After a rough Game Three loss to the Angels in 11 innings, the Yankees were under heavy scrutiny for the next 24 hours. The Yankees weren't hitting with runners in scoring position and relying too much on the home runs and Yankee manager Joe Girardi was heavily criticized for over-managing and taking out David Robertson for Alfredo Aceves, who [...]

ALCS Game Four: The Yankees Make a Statement »

It doesn't always take a historical, dramatic baseball game to clue a fanbase in on something special happening with their team. In the later years of the Joe Torre era, with the bullpen in shambles and the starting rotation often in flux, the uneasy feeling that no lead was safe ran through every regular season game. And in the playoffs, it got [...]

CC Your Friends: Sabathia, Yankees Have Angels on »

The Yankees kept blowing opportunities to score. In the first, Derek Jeter led off with a single, but was caught stealing.  In the second, the first two men reached, but again, New York couldn't get a hit with runners in scoring position.  In the third, Melky Cabrera used a bunt to get aboard, but the Yanks refused to utilize any more [...]

MLB Playoff Umpires Strikeout Yet Again, Ruling »

If playoff baseball has the best umpires in the business, there is something very wrong with the business. In a postseason that has already seen a number of gaffs, the six-man crew covering Game Four of the Yankees-Angels ALCS took incompetency to a whole new level. The umpiring team made three awful blunders, leaving fans wondering just how many [...]

Yankees-Angels: A-Rod, CC Sabathia, Mash L.A., Move »

Alex Rodriguez connected on his fifth home run of the postseason and CC Sabathia dominated the Los Angeles Angels on short rest as the Yankees won 10-1 to move one win away from a trip to the World Series.  A-Rod tied a postseason record with his eighth consecutive game with at least one RBI, and Sabathia handcuffed the Angels through eight [...]

Hinske Omission Looms Large »

While the majority sentiment has focused on over-managing and the alleged Mariano Rivera spitball, it’s an entirely different issue that may have cost the Yankees a nine-inning win last night.   With two on and one out in the top of the eighth and the score tied at four, Melky Cabrera and his slumbering bat feebly approached the plate. [...]

Should the Yankees Be Trusting Joba Chamberlain in Big »

Throughout the playoffs, Joe Girardi has turned to Joba Chamberlain in high-leverage situations. My question is, why? I haven't seen Chamberlain do anything to warrant trusting him in a big spot. Chamberlain has been inconsistent all season and there is no doubt that David Robertson is a better option out of the bullpen at this point. Now, I'm not [...]
