The MiLB season got underway last week, the Yankees’ Triple-A Scranton/Wilkes-Barre RailRiders, kicking off their season in Buffalo. The rest of the team’s full-season affiliates will get started this week, and with the season about to start, the Yankees announced the rosters for the Double-A Somerset Patriots, the High-A Hudson Valley Renegades, and the Low-A […]
For the second straight year, the New York Yankees are opening their season up with a convincing sweep. This time around, the pitching staff led the way as they delivered two shutouts followed by a one-run performance in the finale on Saturday, though the offense more than arrived as well with a seven-run outpouring to […]
The 2026 Major League Baseball regular season is officially underway, and the Yankees have begun their “run it back” season without a hitch after a three-game series sweep against the Giants. The first two games, including the first MLB game of 2026, were shutouts in favor of the visiting Bombers. Max Fried continued his dominance […]
The 1970s were a pivotal time for baseball labor relations and player negotiating power, that decade bringing about the end of the reserve clause and the advent of free agency. There are several trailblazing names associated with that movement, chief among them Curt Flood. But nearly as important in terms of setting a precedent to […]
The baseball gods are rarely kind enough that all the Yankees’ rivals lose on the same day. Yesterday, the exact opposite almost happened. But Boston lost, and that’s always nice. They’re also about to play the Astros and guarantee that at least one of our collective nemeses will lose each of the next few days. […]
For the third consecutive year, the Yankees have begun the season by sweeping their first series of the calendar. This year’s opening series was a tour de force of pitching, as Yankee hurlers held the Giants to just one run across all 27 innings of their time in the Bay. Now they head up to […]
Triple-A Scranton/Wilkes-Barre RailRiders: W, 5-4 (10) and L, 3-7 (7) at Buffalo Bisons — the seven-inning doubleheader rules in the minors didn’t stop Scranton and Buffalo from playing 10 in their doubleheader opener yesterday following Saturday’s postponement, and Max Schuemann’s double scored Oswaldo Cabrera in the top of the 10th before Danny Watson slammed the door […]
Editor’s note: We had some overnight internet issues, so we’re doing the shorter weekend format today. Thanks for understanding! Major League Baseball’s Opening Day weekend series have all come to an end, and the Yankees were one of just five teams to kick off the season with a sweep, joining the Blue Jays (sure), Dodgers […]
The Athletic | Chris Kirschner: ($) How about a few early takeaways from series one? After chasing fewer pitches outside of the zone than any other team last season, the Yankees’ early success with ABS looks a sustainable advantage. After largely learning the position on the fly last year, Ben Rice looks more comfortable at […]
It’s Sunday once more, and you know what that means — it’s time for our weekly social media roundup! At long last, the regular season has begun, and so far, it has gotten off to a fantastic start, with the Yankees securing their first two wins of the season without allowing a run to cross the […]
The first half of the 1920s were a transformative time for the Yankees, the still relatively new franchise transitioning from an also-ran into a true behemoth. With the arrival of Babe Ruth coinciding with the beginning of the live-ball era and the assemblage of Murderers’ Row, the building of the sport’s greatest empire was just […]
This has to be a record for the most number of walk-off wins in the opening weekend of an MLB season. Some teams haven’t even finished playing their season-opening series, and we’ve already witnessed a half-dozen walk-offs. The Blue Jays became the first team since the 2014 Tigers and Pirates to win their first two […]
Triple-A Scranton/Wilkes-Barre RailRiders: Postponed at Buffalo Bisons — Sorry folks, nothing to report today. Yesterday’s game was postponed due to cold, scheduled to be made up as part of a doubleheader this afternoon. Carlos Lagrange is scheduled to go, so hopefully they can make it through the action without incident. Here’s the full press release from […]
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 […]
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 […]
Triple-A Scranton/Wilkes-Barre RailRiders: W, 8-0 at Buffalo Bisons LF Jasson Domínguez 1-5, RBI, KCF Spencer Jones 1-4, 2B, RBI, BB, 2 KSS Oswaldo Cabrera 1-5, RBI, 2 K, throwing error2B Max Schuemann 1-2, RBI, 3 BBRF Yanquiel Fernández 1-4, HR, RBI, BB, K3B Paul DeJong 1-3, 2 RBI, BB, throwing error1B Ernesto Martinez Jr. 1-5, RBI, […]
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 […]
