Williams: Against the clock, Cashman needs to sign Judge
Like Kenny Rogers once sang, ‘you gotta know when to hold ’em, know when to fold em.’ Yankees GM Brian Cashman sat at the table across from Page Odle, the agent Aaron Judge. Neither man walked away with a win. But a third man sat at the table, placing the largest wager possible. Today, Judge’s […]
Williams: How fun is this Yankees team so far?
Admit it, you were mad at the lack of the off season big splash signing. You wanted Carlos Correa. Trevor Story. Freddie Freeman or (like me) Matt Olson. You wondered if GM Brian Cashman was out of minutes on a Tracphone. And today, like me, you were wrong. Because this team is a blast to […]

4/11-4/14 Blue Jays @ Yankees Series Preview
Fresh off opening series wins, the Yankees and Blue Jays clash for a crucial four game set in the Bronx.

However, the gravity of this series should not be understated, […]
Judge, Yankees Reach Impasse on Extension
In another universe far, far, away, Aaron Judge would have addressed a sellout Yankee Stadium crowd at Opening Day with a special announcement: “Well, they convinced me to stay, and I can tell you it’s a privilege to be here for the rest of my career.” *BANGS GAVEL* “OH MY GOODNESS GRACIOUS! OF ALL THE […]

3 Thoughts Following the Anthony Rizzo Signing
The Yankees have reportedly re-signed first baseman Anthony Rizzo to a two-year, $32 million deal with a player opt-out after the first year. Rizzo will be 33 in August and last season hit a combined .248/.344/.440 with a 112 wRC+ with the Chicago Cubs and the Yankees. A longtime Cubs fan favorite, he posted a […]
Won Or Done? Previewing The 2021 AL Wild Card Game
Let’s get this out of the way at the top: a one-game playoff is a fundamentally flawed way to determine the outcome of a baseball season. The 105-win Dodgers are a bad night away from being sent home by a team that won 15 fewer games. The Yankees and Red Sox, evenly matched throughout the […]
