Welcome to SB Nation Reacts, a survey of fans across Major League Baseball. Throughout the year we ask questions of the most plugged-in Yankees fans and fans across the country. 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 […]
“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 […]
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 […]
Farm systems go through cycles. There are strong classes and cycles that rise through the minor leagues together, graduate together, and recycle through. In a situation like the Yankees’, where minor league depth is routinely pillaged for deadline upgrades, the surviving prospects who rise through the system leave chasms in their wake. This happened to […]
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 […]
New York Yankees ace Max Fried posted a 4.40 ERA in the Grapefruit League, with four walks and 12 strikeouts in 14.1 innings. That’s exactly why you shouldn’t fully trust spring training stats: no one in his or her right state of mind had any reason to doubt the stellar southpaw heading into the season. […]
Joe Torre managed the Yankees for 12 seasons, clinching six pennants and bringing four championships to the Bronx. Through his success and steady hand, the former league MVP made himself into something of a modern legend as a skipper. In addition to his people skills, Torre was hailed for an ability to seemingly push the […]
I moved across the country in 2019, packing a VW Jetta with pretty much everything I owned and coming to Vancouver. One of the first groups of people I met and made friends with were the core of my Sunday wood bat league team, and through them I started technically sports gambling. We didn’t just […]
The 2026 season has begun, and the Yankees started their year off with a big 7-0 win over the Giants in San Francisco. The game was in their hands nearly the entire way, with a first inning jam being the only threat to Max Fried’s day before the offense jumped Logan Webb for five runs […]
The Athletic | Andrew Marchand: As MLB, and sports leagues around the country, tries to keep juicing television revenues, it becomes harder and harder for fans to keep track of where their favorite team’s games will be shown. The Yankees’ opener on Netflix last night was symbolic of the fractured nature of the TV landscape, […]
Opening Day is in the books and it couldn’t have gone much better for the Yankees. It was a bit of a throwback game as the Yankees scored seven runs without the ball leaving the yard, the hitters aggressive early in counts to collect ten base hits. Any time you can score seven runs when […]
After a glacially slow winter and a spring that flew by, Opening Day is here! The Yankees begin their quest for No. 28 after the 2025 season ended in disappointing fashion, getting rolled by the Blue Jays in four games in the ALDS. The Giants meanwhile are hoping to get back to the postseason after […]
After a long winter, the snow has at last thawed. Spring is here, and more importantly, so is baseball. Tonight, the Yankees and the Giants will kick off the 2026 regular season with an opening night prime-time matchup at Oracle Park in San Francisco. Now, we’ve got lineups: Leading off is center fielder Trent Grisham, […]
It’s a crowded outfield, but Aaron Judge has made the Opening Day roster. While that may have been an easy decision, filling out the pitching staff was not, as the team elected to start the year with a four-man rotation. Offdays tomorrow and Sunday mean the club optioned Luis Gil to Triple-A Scranton/Wilkes-Barre and roll […]
The hot stove often overshadows changes made to coaching staffs, unless a team is searching for a new manager. The Yankees, of course, were not looking for a new skipper this offseason, but they did make a few changes to ensure the coaching staff was not fully the “run it back” version of last year’s […]
It’s so nice to finally say this: The New York Yankees will officially open the 2026 Major League Baseball season tonight in San Francisco against the Giants, so the spotlight is all on Aaron Judge, Max Fried, and company for the evening. The Opening Day roster is set, the i’s are dotted, the t’s are […]
While it is certainly common for players to play for multiple franchises in their career, more often than not, they are generally associated with one team. In the case of today’s birthday boy, that association is not with the Yankees. Lee Mazzili played 14 seasons in the majors, less than one of which came with […]
After a long offseason, the wait is finally over. Opening Day has officially arrived on the calendar, and the New York Yankees are going to be one of the two teams marking the start of the 2026 Major League Baseball season. As the only game of the day—well, evening—the eyes of every baseball fan will […]
Finally. It’s been 168 days since the New York Yankees’ 2025 campaign ended in Division Series disappointment at the hands of the eventual AL champion Toronto Blue Jays. That was a big ol’ bummer, but it’s ancient history now. The 2026 MLB season begins tonight with the Yankees and San Francisco Giants kicking off the […]
New York Daily News | Gary Phillips: By all accounts, the AL East is going to be a dogfight yet again. The Yankees bring a lot of talent to that fight, with two-time defending MVP Aaron Judge and a top of the pitching rotation that rivals anyone in baseball. There are still real questions with […]
Spring training is over! The Yankees wrapped up the exhibition portion of their season with a big win over the Cubs down in Arizona — 8-3 is your final. Let’s talk about it so we can turn our attention to the stuff that will matter in pursuit of #28. Gerrit Cole had a power pitcher’s […]
