Among the great storylines of this Yankees season has been the resurgence of second baseman Gleyber Torres. Torres, 25, has had a rough couple of seasons. The pandemic-shortened 2020 season nearly derailed Torres’ once promising career. He admitted to getting a little out of shape after spring training was stopped and had a difficult time […]
MLB rolled out the ballots for this year’s MLB All-Star Game, which will be held July 19 at Dodger Stadium. Fans can vote up to five times per day until June 30 on mlb.com. We know Aaron Judge will be there. He’s the far and away the AL MVP. Each at-bat is must-see TV. So […]
Over the past few days the last of the Yankees roster cuts have trickled in and the Opening Day roster for the 2022 MLB Season is now set. Friendly reminder that the rosters have been expanded to 28 players until May 1st to accommodate the shorter Spring Training schedule as a result of the lockout. […]
With the 2022 seasons gearing up to begin on Thursday, I thought it would be fun to make some predictions on this year’s Yankee squad so we have something to look back at when the season comes to a conclusion. Below are five predictions I am making for this year’s Bronx Bombers. The Yankees will […]
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 […]
When Gleyber Torres joined the Yankees in 2018, he was an instant fan favorite. He slashed .271/.340/.480 with 24 home runs and 77 RBI. He also posted a 121 wRC+ and .349 wOBA. When asked if Gleyber Torres would be involved in any trade discussions that season, Brian Cashman scoffed, adding “I have to walk […]
If you were to speak to Yankees fans about the state of the team on April 21st you’d think the sky was falling. The Yankees had just dropped the second game of a two-game set to the Atlanta Braves and sat at a 6-11 record as they hit the road for 8 games. What made […]
Gary Sanchez showed he means business going 2-for-3 with a 2-run home run and throwing out Grichuk at second late in the game. Romano (1-0) took the win for the Blue Jays and Nelson (0-1) took the loss for the Yankees. Cole has a Strong Debut but Earns No Decision Gerrit Cole came out strong […]
It’s almost finally upon us. Yes, a full 162 game MLB Season awaits. It was no fun last season trying to predict seasons in a shortened year, yet this season the past time will return to its past form; and so will my projections. Without wasting any time, I’m going to jump into my batting […]
It’s been a wild and whacky week for the New York Yankees. Aaron Judge returned to play after apparently being 100% the whole time, just to re-injure himself in his first game back. Gerrit Cole, while having solid stuff, is getting hit harder than he has in a long time. The Mets walked off the […]
