New York Yankees @ Arizona Diamondbacks: Cam Schlittler vs. Brandon Pfaadt
Last night was a good night for the Yankees, seeing the team put up five runs in the first paired with a good Gerrit Cole outing to cruise to a 9-2 win over the Diamondbacks. The club also picked up a game on the Rays as the AL East leaders dropped the opener of their […]
On the business of analytics
Last weekend marked the beginning of the 2026-2027 NFL season, and with it came a number of new and interesting narratives to watch out for over the next few weeks. Was Week 1’s offensive outburst a fluke, or are we in for a year of no defense, just vibes? Will the Kansas City Chiefs kickstart […]
Yankees Birthday of the Day: Bob Turley
In the mid-’50s, Major League Baseball introduced a couple of new awards to honor exemplary performance. The Cy Young Award recognized the best pitcher in baseball (later expanded as separate awards for each league). The World Series MVP recognized the player who had the biggest impact on each year’s Fall Classic. Since that time, six […]
Yankees Rivalry Roundup: Red Sox snap Rays winning streak
About halfway through the Yankees’ nightcap in Arizona, news trickled through that the Red Sox had snapped the Rays’ six-game winning streak. That ratcheted up the pressure on the Yankees to beat the Diamondbacks and narrow the gap in the division to four games. They did just that, routing the D-Backs, 9-2, to stay alive […]
Yankees prospects: Kloffenstein steps up with six shutout innings
Triple-A Scranton/Wilkes-Barre RailRiders: W, 8-5 vs. Jacksonville Jumbo Shrimp — mathematically still alive, per the Scranton Times-Tribune, but not by much; they would need to win their last two games while Indianapolis and Rochester both drop their final two (before tiebreakers factor in) DH Jarred Kelenic 1-5, 2 K, 1 SBRF Jasson Domínguez 0-5, 2 […]
Today on Pinstripe Alley – 9/19/26
Friday did not start off great for the Yankees, as news broke that Aaron Judge would indeed be going on the IL for a calf strain he suffered in the middle of Wednesday’s finale against the Twins. Judge was pulled from that game in the sixth inning and at the time it was unclear if […]
Yankees news: Judge back on shelf
MLB Trade Rumors | Darragh McDonald: Well, it was nice while it lasted. The Yankees announced yesterday evening that they will be placing right fielder Aaron Judge on the ten-day injured list with a calf strain today; Max Schuemann is expected to be the corresponding move. Since it will be backdated to the 16th, Judge […]
Yankees ride five-run first to series-opening romp of Diamondbacks
The two starting pitchers entered this game trending in opposite directions. Gerrit Cole had just allowed the most home runs (seven) in a two-start span in his career, while Eduardo Rodriguez is in the midst of a career year with a 2.62 ERA. One of those trends remained — Cole giving up another home run […]
New York Yankees @ Arizona Diamondbacks: Gerrit Cole vs. Eduardo Rodriguez
The Yankees will be without Aaron Judge for at least ten days after he was placed on the IL with a right calf strain suffered in the first inning of the Yankees’ loss to the Twins on Wednesday. It is a potentially mortal blow to their last gasp effort to chase down the Rays in […]
Aaron Judge heading to the injured list with calf strain
Just days after his return from a lengthy absence, Aaron Judge is once again heading to the injured list, a heavy blow for a Yankees team with great postseason aspirations that relies on the presence of their star player. Although the news broke today, Judge will be officially placed on the IL on Saturday, leaving […]
Yankees Mailbag: Lining up for the postseason
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. IndyAnaJones asks: If the Yankees lose the division, at whose feet might you lay the blame, without resorting to excuses […]
Mile High: Former RailRider Rumfield rocking in Colorado
BRONX, N.Y. — From the time he was traded from the Philadelphia Phillies to the New York Yankees in November 2021, T.J. Rumfield dreamed of playing in Yankee Stadium. That dream became a reality last week. However, it didn’t come in Yankees pinstripes. Rather, it was in Colorado Rockies purple and black. “It’s a dream […]
On the matter of divorce
Last week, I wrote about Cam Schlittler’s outside case to be AL MVP. Many outlets have since followed my lead, which tickles the old ego, but really the fallout from that story has been more personal. I always try to be someone that is open to changing his mind, open to new information leading to […]
Yankees Birthday of the Day: Brent Lillibridge
If you look at the roster for the 2013 Yankees, it reads like a fever dream. Sure, there are the Yankees of that era that you remember, but other than Robinson Canó and Brett Gardner, most of them hardly played that season. There are also some names that you probably don’t remember playing in the […]
Yankees Rivalry Roundup: Rays win sixth straight
Thursday was an off day for the Yankees, but as we progress into the final weeks of the 2026 regular season, every game matters for many teams around the Junior Circuit. Between the mediocre races in the Central and West, or the fight for the final wild card spot, there is plenty of moving that […]
New York Yankees vs. Arizona Diamondbacks: Series Preview
The Yankees squandered a chance to sweep the Twins Wednesday, dropping a 13-inning gut punch that diminished their chances of catching up to the Rays in the AL East. They’ll head to Phoenix this weekend for a three-game set against the Diamondbacks, who’ve dropped consecutive series and are hanging by a thread in the NL […]
Yankees prospects: Domínguez homers on back-to-back days
Triple-A Scranton/Wilkes-Barre RailRiders: L, 7-5 vs. Jacksonville Jumbo Shrimp — Scranton’s efforts to secure a second-half International League title have flagged in the last week LF Jarred Kelenic 0-5, KRF Jasson Domínguez 4-5, 2 2B, HR, 2 RBI, SB — the Martian doing everything he can do end the Triple-A season on a high noteC […]
Today on Pinstripe Alley – 9/18/26
In theory, taking two of three in a road series to open the week should qualify as a success, but in dropping the series finale in Minnesota, the Yankees lost ground in the AL East race, and they wake up today in Arizona five back of the Tampa Bay Rays. It’s a sobering set of […]
Yankees news: Carlos Lagrange hits 102 in return
MLB.com | Clark Fahrenthold: Carlos Lagrange made a triumphant return to the mound Wednesday, striking out two in a scoreless inning with Triple-A Scranton/Wilkes-Barre. Most encouragingly, the fireballer’s heater topped out at 102.1 mph and he threw four pitches in triple digits. The Yankees’ number-two pitching prospect had been on the shelf since the end […]
Yankees Sequence of the Week: Max Fried (9/15)
It wouldn’t have been a proper Yankees-Twins series in Minnesota without a game that devolved into extra-innings madness. The Yankees failed to cash in multiple bases loaded opportunities and so missed a chance to sweep, falling farther behind the Rays in the standings. Nonetheless, the Bombers took care of business in the first two games […]
Professional athletes are faster than you think
Giancarlo Stanton’s less-than-stellar speed is widely known throughout the baseball community. During the Yankees’ pennant run two years ago, Bob Costas went viral in the baseball community for bringing it up at every possible opportunity as the Bombers took on the Kansas City Royals, noting that “it’s not his fault” because repeated lower body injuries […]
Yankees Birthday of the Day: Al Gettel
Allen Gettel was born a ways south of the Bronx, down in Norfolk, Virginia. Growing up on the family farm, few could have predicted the journey his life would take. From pitching in Yankee Stadium to acting on the big screen, Gettel became his own type of renaissance man. Allen Jones GettelBorn: September 17, 1917 […]
Yankees Rivalry Roundup: Rays win to gain game in AL East
Wednesday ended up producing one of the more frustrating Yankees’ games of the season. Having rallied to tie the game after being down to their last out, the Yankees took leads in the 10th and 11th innings, and had the bases loaded and nobody out in the 12, but couldn’t put up a crooked number […]
Missed opportunities may ultimately doom Scranton/Wilkes-Barre RailRiders in second-half race
Things are going right down to the wire for the Scranton/Wilkes-Barre RailRiders in the race for the International League second-half title. Losing the final two games of their series last week in Rochester put the RailRiders two behind the first-place Red Wings, Triple-A affiliate of the Washington Nationals, entering the final week of the regular […]
Yankees prospects: Tampa loses Florida State League championship in walk-off
Triple-A Scranton/Wilkes-Barre RailRiders: L, 6-9 vs. Jacksonville Jumbo Shrimp — at two games behind league-leading Indianapolis with four to play and Rochester also ahead, the RailRiders’ season is almost officially over (doesn’t help that they lost Oswaldo Cabrera to DFA limbo; alas) CF Jarred Kelenic 1-4, HR, BB, 2 RBI, 2 K — game-tying two-run […]
