Despite the MLB collective bargaining agreement expiring in under a month there has been activity to kick off the offseason. We have seen the normal option decisions and a couple of signings. We also know that teams are in contact with agents of players on the market and having trade discussions. Brian Cashman himself said that he has already talked …
There was Nathan Eovaldi in 2018. Then there was Julio Urias last year. Next up is LuisSeverino, who must play a similar role to those two starters-turned-relievers for the New York Yankees to win their 28th World Series Championship this year. Two of the past three world champions – 2020 Los Angeles Dodgers and 2018 Boston Red Sox — each …
What a stretch of baseball for the Yankees. After spending most of the season playing frustrating baseball, leaving them with a .500 record as recently as July 4, the Yankees are now in sole possession of the first Wild Card spot. Not only that, but they have overtaken the Boston Red Sox in the standings by sweeping them in three …
It’s no secret that the New York Yankees have been hit with every bad thing possible this season, both on and off the field. Three separate COVID-19 outbreaks, injuries, and underperforming have all hit the Yankees at one point or another in 2021. Things have not been all bad as of late. The Yankees have won nine of their last …
Since the All-Star break, a lot has gone on with the Yankees, from COVID-19 outbreaks to big-time trades and comeback wins. There are approximately 20 players on the injured list due to a combination of injuries and positive tests for COVID-19. The Yankees are still winning despite this. Since they fell back to .500 after Aroldis Chapman blew a save …
The Yankees’ inconsistency needed to be turned around if they wanted a real chance at winning a world championship in 2021. One of the few things they did consistently other than run the bases very poorly was had no fight when behind. That changed this week in Buffalo as all three Yankee wins were all in comeback fashion as the …
The New York Yankees have traditionally never been a fast-starting team. Even one of the greatest Yankee teams ever, the 1998 Yankees, started under .500 for the first few weeks of the season. You know what happened the rest of that season. The 2021 Yankees got off to a similarly slow start in terms of record, but the bad stretch …
It has not been a good week for Yankees baseball. Corey Kluber and Luke Voit are back on the injured list, and the continued lack of production from an offensive standpoint resulted in many ugly losses. There are many different reasons that people argue as to what the problem is with this team. It is pretty simple what is leading …
The Yankees have been winning differently than in recent years. We are used to seeing an offensive powerhouse lead this team into the postseason. That has not been the case in 2021; the Yankees win from elite pitching from both the starters and relievers and some timely hits. New York took a blow to their rotation when it was revealed …
The Yankees signed Corey Kluber in mid-January to a one-year, $11 million contract in a move that was a relatively low-risk, high reward signing. On Wednesday night, he had the night of his career tossing a no-hitter against the Texas Rangers in Arlington. The performance comes in a string of good starts for Kluber, who has come on as of …
