Latest news and updates about the Yankees
Three games, three wins! It’s hard to do much better than that, the Yankees starting off their season with a sweep for the second year in a row. The shape of the sweep was much different this time around though, as this season’s Yankees have used phenomenal pitching to quell the Giants, while the 2025 […]
The Athletic | Chris Kirschner: The streak came to an end after the Giants scored in the third inning on Saturday, but the Yankees opened the season with 20 consecutive scoreless innings, including two shutouts in the first two games. Even missing some of the most important pieces through injury, Yankees’ pitching — from Max […]
There are a lot of unreliable things about this era of Yankees baseball, but there’s always one thing that they seem to do every year. While some teams are sluggish out of the gates, the Yankees always manage to go full speed to start the season. For the third straight year, the Yankees have swept […]
The San Francisco Giants are about to close out their series with the New York Yankees, and we’re all hoping the finale goes better than the first two acts. So far, the Yankees have completely shut down the Giants, winning 7-0 on Wednesday and 3-0 on Friday. San Francisco has mustered just four hits all […]
After two consecutive shutout victories to start the season, the Yankees are on pace to go 162-0 with zero runs allowed. Will that happen? Probably not, but it is the first time in franchise history that they’ve blanked their opponents in the first 18 innings, and heading into the series finale tonight at Oracle Park, […]
The Yankees netted yet another nice victory on Friday, taking down the Giants 3-0 thanks to homers from Aaron Judge and Giancarlo Stanton. Although the season is young and the true important games elsewhere are yet to be determined, there is plenty of other action around the American League. From excellent starts to the season […]
Vic Raschi did not have a long enough or fruitful enough career to warrant anything like a Hall of Fame induction or a number retirement from the Yankees. However, for several years, he was a very good pitcher for the Yankees in what was arguably their most dynastic era. Today just so happens to be […]

It would’ve been hard for the Yankees to script a better first two games of their 2026 campaign. Sure, they probably wouldn’t have written in four strikeouts from their captain on Opening Day, but otherwise, things have been stellar, with Aaron Judge busting out with his first home run yesterday in another shutout win. Two […]
SNY | Phillip Martínez The Yankees are now 2-0 in the 2026 campaign after taking the second game of their three-game set vs. the San Francisco Giants. The 3-0 final score meant that they have now pitched two consecutive shutouts in the Bay Area, led by Max Fried on Wednesday and Cam Schlittler on Friday. […]
The Yankees stable of arms has come out the gate hotter than the Sun. After a 7-0 victory over the Giants on Opening Night, the Bombers, led by young star Cam Schlittler, continued to post zero after zero on Friday afternoon en route to a 3-0 series-clinching victory. Schlittler combined with four relievers for a […]
After a dominant Opening Day performance and early rest day, the Yankees are back at it again this afternoon for the second game of their series with the Giants in San Francisco. Cam Schlittler will get the ball for the Yankees against veteran left-hander Robbie Ray as the Bombers look to keep the momentum going […]

Sign up here to participate in the weekly emailed surveys. Earlier this week, we asked Yankees fans to predict how far the team would go […]
Paul Skenes is arguably the best pitcher in the league even after a rough start on Opening Day to the New York Mets. So it should be no surprise that teams would have interest in the former Cy Young winner, especially teams with a lot of money like the New York Yankees. Skenes is under […]
“If you can’t beat them, join them.“ Or, in this case, have them join you. In a move that is not quite as dramatic as someone like Roger Clemens eventually making his way from Boston stardom to the Bronx, the Yankees recently signed right-handed pitcher Luis Garcia to a minor-league deal. And if you were […]
What comes to mind when you hear Miller Huggins’ name? The 1920s Yankees, surely. He is remembered primarily as the man who managed that legendary core of Babe Ruth, Lou Gehrig, Tony Lazzeri, Herb Pennock and company, capturing six AL pennants and three World Series titles during his twelve-year tenure. Some might point to the […]
The San Francisco Giants will continue their opening series against the New York Yankees this afternoon from Oracle Park. The Yankees have a 1-0 series lead after the Giants’ disastrous Opening Day loss. Taking the mound for the first time this season for the Giants will be left-hander Robbie Ray, who finished the 2025 season […]
While the Yankees got their 2026 season going on Wednesday night, the rest of MLB had to wait a little while. Thursday saw the season get going for most of the rest of the league, with 11 games happening on an action-packed day. With those teams all getting in action yesterday, that means it’s time […]
Carlos Lagrange is a fascinating prospect. The 22-year-old, owner of a slightly deceiving 4.96 Grapefruit League ERA, was amazing all spring despite that late stinker in which he allowed eight runs in 2.2 innings earlier this week. And we’re not just talking about his performance in games. Evidently, he put in the work in the […]
Good morning, baseball fans! The San Francisco Giants continue their opening series this weekend against the New York Yankees. So it’s time to see what promotions and events Oracle Park has on deck for fans this weekend! The schedule continues to be a little bit odd this weekend, as the team will have a really […]
The Yankees got to take their first off-day of the year easy after demolishing the Giants on Opening Day, watching as the rest of the league got to take a shot at getting in the win column. In the AL East, everyone but Toronto jumped into action with the O’s and Sox winning to form […]
NY Post | Greg Joyce: The Yankees rolled over the Giants on Wednesday, but if you were to guess how they did it, you’d be hard-pressed to find a lot of people who would’ve had them getting 10 hits with nine of them being singles, not one home run slugged, and absolutely nothing from Aaron […]
Whether due to injury, poor performance, or the quirks of a 162-game schedule, a team generally needs far more than five starters to make it through a season (11 different pitchers started games for the 2025 Yankees). Each month during the season, we take stock of the Yankees’ options to join the starting rotation through […]
After yesterday’s Opening Night on Netflix, MLB Opening Day officially kicks off for 22 other teams today. The San Francisco Giants and New York Yankees will resume their series tomorrow. The day kicks off with a marquee matchup of Paul Skenes and the Pittsburgh Pirates facing off against Juan Soto and the New York Mets. […]
