Yankees Birthday of the Day: Tommy John

In the baseball canon, Tommy John’s name gets used with more frequency and gravity than almost any one else’s. Unlike some of the other cemented names in the game’s history, John’s recognition comes largely from reasons outside of his play. Now, this does make sense, given the importance of the surgery that bears his name, […]

New York Yankees vs. Tampa Bay Rays: Series Preview

Thursday saw the Yankees wrap up a four-game set against the Blue Jays with a loss, earning a series split. The last two games were especially frustrating, with the Yankees scoring just one total run between them. However, this would be a bad time for them to them to dwell on those woes. Now comes […]

Today on Pinstripe Alley – 5/22/26

The Yankees had a real chance to turn things around this week, pulling out a pair of dramatic wins to open up their four-gams series with the Blue Jays. But their offense laid an egg in the final two contests, scoring one run combined and having to settle for a split with Toronto. No matter, […]

Yankees news: New York sends down Spencer Jones, Yovanny Cruz

New York Post | Greg Joyce: After last night’s loss to the Blue Jays, the Yankees sent Yovanny Cruz and Spencer Jones down to Triple-A. The moves clear two spots on the active roster, which will be taken presumably by Gerrit Cole and José Caballero today. This would all but confirm that the Yankees will go […]

Paul Goldschmidt is showing he still has a lot to offer

The Yankees initially decided to bring in Paul Goldschmidt ahead of the 2025 campaign to be their first baseman. Throughout the first couple months, the signing was a coup, as he hit a scalding .338/.394/.495 with a 148 wRC+. Plenty of folks in the Yankees’ orbit thought that he had found the Fountain of Youth. […]

Yankees Birthday of the Day: Andrew Miller

The New York Yankees know what it’s like to hold some of the league’s best relievers in its bullpen. Names like Goose Gossage, Sparky Lyle, Dave Righetti, and Mariano Rivera are the talk of the town for the Bombers of old, while Dellin Betances resonate with those in the modern era. But another reliever of […]

When a home run wasn’t a home run

On May 21, 1880, a strange thing happened in upstate New York. While playing at Riverside Park in Albany, Lip Pike — playing for the National Association team in Albany in between stints at the professional/semi-professional level — hit a fly ball over the fence in right field and into the nearby river. Outfielder Lon […]

Yankees Rivalry Roundup: Rays continue to pad division lead

The Yankees dropped the third game of their series against the Blue Jays, losing a narrow pitchers’ duel between Cam Schlittler and Trey Yesavage. Schlittler matched Yesavage zero for zero on the scoreboard until the seventh inning, when the hits finally poured over and loaded the bases before he walked one in and was pulled. […]

Yankees Sequence of the Week: Camilo Doval (5/19)

The last three games have been an adventure with the Yankees bullpen, and not a particularly fun one either. Yes, they secured the win in two out of three, but boy have David Bednar and Camilo Doval put Yankees fans through the wringer in the ninth inning against the Mets and the first two against […]

Yankees prospects: Jackson Lovich hits three homers, but farm goes winless

Triple-A Scranton/Wilkes-Barre RailRiders: L, 1-13 at Lehigh Valley IronPigs — fell behind 7-0 after four and then a six-run eighth made the score silly SS George Lombard Jr. 1-5, 2B, 2 K, CS — 398 feet on the two-baggerRF Yanquiel Fernández 1-5, 2 K2B Marco Luciano 0-3, BBLF Oswaldo Cabrera 0-3, BB1B Seth Brown 1-4, […]

Yankees news: Caballero eyes Friday return, Volpe’s spot?

MLB.com | Mike Petriello: Aaron Judge, the greatest right-handed hitter of all time, has a chance to make history once more this year. Though his production thus far in 2026 hasn’t quite matched his play from the last few seasons, he’s on pace for 54 home runs, which would make the first hitter ever to […]

Trent Grisham removed from Wednesday’s game with left knee discomfort

With Giancarlo Stanton and Jasson Domínguez already on the shelf after injuries suffered within the past month in two separate series against the Texas Rangers, the organization’s outfield depth is being stretched thin. Unfortunately, the hits kept on coming during Wednesday night’s game against the Blue Jays, following a two-hour rain delay. Center fielder Trent […]

Payton Henry now on RailRiders’ side of rivalry with Lehigh Valley

Scranton/Wilkes-Barre RailRiders catcher Payton Henry has had this week circled on the schedule for a while.  For the first time this season, the RailRiders face the Lehigh Valley IronPigs, Triple-A affiliate of the Philadelphia Phillies. They opened a six-game series Tuesday night at Coca-Cola Park in Allentown, Pa., with a 15-4 victory.   Henry played for […]

How best to handle the sound at Yankee Stadium

Over the past two years, the biggest story at Yankee Stadium has not been the play on the field, but the organization’s insistence to launch a veritable artillery barrage of sound at the fans in an effort to mimic the vibe at a Knicks game and, allegedly, bring the Stadium into the 2020s. While the […]

I guess Cody Bellinger is taking walks again

One of the most common critiques leveled against the Yankees’ 2025-26 offseason was that they were simply running it back, and to those critics, no move was as emblematic of that than the re-signing of Cody Bellinger. Although the 2019 NL MVP had a stellar year in 2025, hitting .272 with 29 homers and accumulating […]

Yankees Birthday of the Day: Bobby Murcer

If you were to rank the best and most beloved Yankees in history, most of them would share at least one trait: they probably won a couple World Series rings. There’s some people on the current day team that unfortunately haven’t checked that off the list yet, but basically since Babe Ruth showed up in […]
