Latest news and updates about the Yankees
After an on-and-off week for the Brewers, they’re back in action following a scheduled off day yesterday and this evening, ready to begin a three-game series with the New York Yankees. It’s been just a little over a year since the Yankees and Brewers last squared off, and last year’s series was certainly one that […]
Good afternoon everyone, it’s time to dive back into the mailbag and answer some of your questions. Remember to send in your questions for our weekly call by e-mail to pinstripealleyblog [at] gmail [dot] com. The idiot that said, “Harper is coming” asks: Do you have any ideas on who could be the back end of […]
Welcome, friends. I hope you brought popcorn and soda, because it’s time for Part 2 of my impromptu review of the Yankees’ first base situation before Ben Rice arrived on the scene. In Part 1, we covered the decline phase of Mark Teixeira and the tragic fate of Greg Bird, but ended on a high […]
This past offseason, many Yankees fans grew anxious as Cody Bellinger remained unsigned and the club’s only outside addition appeared to be Ryan Weathers. These were the days before the “run it back Yankees” became the reality surrounding the roster construction for 2026. Even after signing Bellinger and making a few additional moves, many felt […]
Art López could always hit. Despite an injured throwing arm that limited his effectiveness in the outfield, a diminutive stature, and little fanfare, he played until the age of 36, winning championships in six different countries. A hit tool can carry a ballplayer quite a long way, and despite his brief MLB career, the man […]
It was a busy day in Yankee land, as the Bombers won an early afternoon game against the Rangers, while also calling up one of the franchise’s more exciting prospects in Spencer Jones. It was an all around good win against Texas, as the Yanks were able to maintain their narrow lead in the East. […]
With outfielder Jasson Domínguez headed to the injured list after crashing into the outfield wall earlier this afternoon, the New York Yankees have opted to promote top prospect Spencer Jones, according to reports. Soon after, it was reported that, following the bullpen day, the Yankees were recalling Kervin Castro from the minors as well; he […]
Good morning, LSB. The Rangers lost to the Yankees yesterday, 9-2. Evan Grant writes about the slim margin of error the Rangers have to work with in order to get a win these days. Kennedi Landry touches on MacKenzie Gore, who was in control through five innings before the wheels shot off. Joc Pederson started […]
Yankees 9, Rangers 2
The Yankees are on a roll. After a 6-1 homestand in which they mopped the floor with the Orioles and decisively took two of three from the Rangers (again), the Bombers boast an AL-best 26-12 record. Now, they’ll shove off for a nine-game road trip, beginning with a three-game set against the Brewers in Milwaukee. […]

Greetings, Brew Crew Ball community. The Brewers are back in town, as they’ll host the Yankees and Padres over the next week. We’ll start things off this week with a question: Which opposing MLB stadium would you most (and least) like to visit to catch a game? Feel free to use this thread to chat […]
After a minor blip on Wednesday night, the Yankees got back to their winning ways, bruising their way past the Rangers en route to a series win. I’m sure Wednesday’s limp offensive effort, which bled into a slow start to the game on Thursday, had some fans worried that the offense was about to head […]
SNY | John Flanigan: Yankees outfielder Jasson Domínguez suffered a low-grade AC sprain in his left shoulder after crashing against the wall while making an impressive defensive play on Thursday. He tested negative for a concussion, but the shoulder injury sent him to the 10-day injured list anyway; they’ll continue to monitor for concussion symptoms […]
It’s still hard to believe that John Sterling is no longer with us. The longtime voice of the Yankees who died at age 87 this past Monday was, in my book, among the greatest broadcasters of all time. He brought unforgettable moments to life with his signature theatrical flair, delighting and entertaining generations of Yankees […]
The Milwaukee Brewers are back in town, as they’ll take on the New York Yankees with Jackson Chourio ready to suit up for the first time at home this season. Milwaukee is coming off a series split with the Cardinals, as the second game of the series was rained out and rescheduled for early July. […]
Nothing about the Yankees’ terrific start to May has been guaranteed. The Bombers have routinely had to scratch and claw to stay ahead in ballgames—dodging poor fortune and injury scares to emerge out the other side with a hard-earned win. Today’s getaway day game against Texas was no different. Scheduled starter Ryan Weathers was out […]
The Texas Rangers scored twice but the New York Yankees scored nine runs. No team in the American League is very good right now except for the team the Rangers have played like six times in the last two weeks, which happens to be the team they played today. The Rangers won two of those […]
I can still remember exactly where I was when Bartolo Colon hit his first career home run, ten years ago today, May 7, 2016. I was throwing away a poopy diaper. My son was three months old, and after feeding him, my wife handed him off to me for some dad time while she rested. […]
Jasson Domínguez exited today’s game against the Rangers after a scary collision with the left field wall. Brandon Nimmo, Texas’ leadoff hitter, sent a line drive to left, which Domínguez caught before ramming into the wall. Domínguez immediately went to the ground and Aaron Boone and the team’s trainers quickly ran to the outfield. The left fielder was […]
1927 The Comiskey Park upper deck officially opened to fans, as 37,000 fans streamed in to watch the New York Yankees crush the home team, 8-0. The upper deck added 23,200 seats to the ballpark’s capacity. It was a tight contest until the ninth inning, when Lou Gehrig capped a six-run frame for the Bronx […]
It’s getaway day game time at the Stadium! The Yankees are up bright and early for a 12:35 pm start as they host the Rangers, seeking to win their sixth consecutive series. The Bombers outslugged Texas and handed a second loss to Jacob deGrom in the opener, before suffering a second defeat at the hands […]
Prior to Thursday afternoon’s game against the Rangers, the Yankees called up right-handed pitcher Brendan Beck. The 27-year-old has been with Triple-A Scranton-Wilkes Barre all season, and will likely make his big-league debut against Texas. Across seven starts and 37 innings to this point in 2026, Beck’s results have been so-so. The righty has managed […]

Very recently, I wrote an article here talking about the opportunity presented to the Yankees in 2026, competing for the top spot in an American League that lacked standout clubs. Some of their potential biggest adversaries were dealing with more than their fair share of issues in the Blue Jays and Mariners. Since then, the […]
