Yankees news: Judge calls out “lack of focus”
New York Daily News | Gary Phillips: The Yankees’ sidelined captain delivered a pointed analysis of the team’s recent performance in his absence. “Well, it’s not great,” Aaron Judge said said before Wednesday’s game. “Just a little lack of focus. We just gotta dial it in.” His public comments, the first since he landed on […]
Yankees collapse, rally, collapse again as Tigers sweep
For a moment, we had hope. The Yankees came back in the bottom of the ninth inning, showing exactly the kind of fight and fire that has been so absent over the last week. They closed a two-run deficit in genuinely exciting fashion. Then the floor fell out from under them, they lost their seventh […]
New York Yankees vs. Detroit Tigers: Will Warren vs. Troy Melton
I’m going to take one small moment to complain about something. Because MLB has insisted on divvying up games between some one thousand different broadcasters, I was unable to watch and recap Sunday’s loss to the Red Sox. Me being in Canada, I was also tapped to recap the Fourth of July game to give […]
MLB End-of-June Check-In: AL West
Every day, Pinstripe Alley offers updates on what the Yankees’ top American League opponents are up to through the Rivalry Roundup. The AL East is well-trodden ground there, but with the end of the month upon us, we’re going to take a peek around MLB as a whole and check in with each of the other five […]
Yankees Birthday of the Day: Jack Quinn
These days, we are blessed with an overabundance of information about professional athletes. Thanks to systemic and easily accessible databases (at least, relative to previous centuries), it’s fairly easy to track down basic information about a player – where and when they were born, where they lived, what schools they attended, and how they became […]
MLB End-of-June Check-in: AL Central
Every day, Pinstripe Alley offers updates on what the Yankees’ top American League opponents are up to through the Rivalry Roundup. The AL East is well-trodden ground there, but with the end of the month upon us, we’re going to take a peek around MLB as a whole and check in with each of the other five […]
Yankees June Approval Poll: Brian Cashman
The first half of the season has flown by, as has the first half of 2026. As ever, a new page of the calendar brings the latest installation in our GM approval poll monthly. I’m certain that opinions will be particularly fierce as we ask you to consider what has reliably and consistently been the […]
Yankees Rivalry Roundup: Guardians literally throw the game away
The Yankees are officially reeling as they jump into July, losing their sixth straight game in lackluster fashion. The Tigers took ace Cam Schlittler to task from the get-go, scoring four runs in the first inning and six by the time he exited after just three innings. New York did get another home run off […]

Which Yankee is facing the most pressure to turn it around?
Welp. Last night was more of the same for the suddenly-helpless Yankees, who closed out June with their sixth loss in a row — appropriately their longest skid since … last June. The Aaron Boone Era Yankees are nothing if not consistent in their frustrating patterns. For last night in particular, nothing went right. Their […]
Yankees news: Aaron Judge targeting August return
MLB.com | Bryan Hoch: After almost a month of uncertainty, the Yankees have finally provided a return timetable. Judge indicated that he is targeting an August return, but first has to undergo follow-up imaging in a couple weeks. Judge last played on May 31st and was diagnosed with a fractured first right rib on June […]
Yankees doomed to sixth-straight loss by Cam Schlittler’s homer-happy start
The Yankees lost their sixth straight, 9-3 to the Tigers. I have to get that in the first graf (writer-speak for “paragraph”) or my ‘tors (blogtalk for “editors”) get grumpy with me. With that out of the way, let’s travel to the land of metaphor! Do you all know what the Franklin Expedition was? In […]
New York Yankees vs. Detroit Tigers: Cam Schlittler vs. Tarik Skubal
The eyes of the baseball world turn to the Bronx tonight, with a two-time defending Cy Young winner taking on the odds-on favorite for this year’s award. Cam Schlittler will look to outduel Tarik Skubal and halt this five-game losing streak the Yankees are on, and if the offense can respond they way the team […]
Ben Rice, Aaron Judge trail in MLB All-Star voting
MLB All-Star voting has advanced to its second phase, with three Yankees, Aaron Judge, Ben Rice, and Cody Bellinger, still in the running after moving on from Phase 1. All three are trailing in the polls with two days left in the voting. Phase 1 of All-Star voting concluded last week, with the Blue Jays’ […]
Henry Lalane’s prospect stock and trade value are on the rise
The Yankees signed left-hander Henry Lalane as an amateur free agent out of the Dominican Republic in 2021. He was always seen as a talented but raw pitching prospect, but the skills and the tools were loud, so much so that he was ninth in MLB Pipeline’s organizational top 30 list in 2024, 11th in […]
Yankees prospects: Week 14 minor league recap
Pitching. Pitching. Pitching. That’s been the strength of the Yankees’ farm system for the last few years, and this week was no different. With some key bats either currently on the shelf or joining the shelf late in the week, the focus was on the mountain of arms continuing impressive seasons or taking steps forward […]
Yankees recall Yovanny Cruz to shore up bullpen
Losers of five consecutive games and eight of their last 10, the Yankees are desperate to turn things around. Ryan Weathers and some suspect defensive play are mostly to blame for Monday’s loss against the Tigers, one in which the bullpen had to throw 7.1 innings. With the unit needing a fresh arm for the […]
Yankees Birthdays, June 30: Jerry Kenney
Being an all-glove, no-hit player pretty much bars you from superstardom, but even then, some manage to earn a place among baseball legend by doing the right thing at the right time. Bucky Dent’s seasonal OPS never climbed above .700 during his Yankees tenure, yet his name is rightfully etched into club history because his […]
Yankees Rivalry Roundup: Blue Jays snap six-game losing streak in Bichette’s return to Toronto
The Yankees offense keeps finding new lows to achieve. They’ve managed one or fewer hits through seven innings in back-to-back games, have lost five straight, and mustered just 12 hits across their last four games, which is the fewest hits over a four-game span in franchise history. Yes, three of their best hitters are out […]
Yankees potential trade partner: Minnesota Twins
The Major League Baseball trade deadline is August 3rd at 6 p.m. ET, which may seem like a while away at first glance, but given how fast the season moves, it won’t be long before rumors swirl and moves are made. Every playoff team (and non-playoff team) will want in on the action for the […]
Yankees prospects: Wilberson De Pena continues bullying Rookie ball
Triple-A Scranton/Wilkes-Barre RailRiders: Offday (but it didn’t stop the injury bug that’s crushed the majors to hit them, too; recently-promoted and red-hot Garrett Martin hit the IL with an undisclosed injury) Double-A Somerset Patriots: Offday High-A Hudson Valley Renegades: Offday Low-A Tampa Tarpons: Offday Florida Complex League Yankees: W, 5-2 at FCL Blue Jays 3B […]
Who’s most likely to jumpstart the offense?
The worst-kept secret about the Yankees right now is that they’re hurting for some offensive fireworks. With Aaron Judge, Giancarlo Stanton, Trent Grisham, and Ryan McMahon all on the IL right now, over a third of the starting lineup is missing and the consequences can be felt in their five-game losing streak. They’ve been on […]
Yankees news: Jazz Chisholm Jr. leaves Monday’s game with injury
NBC Sports: In case you missed it, Jazz Chisholm Jr. exited Monday’s game against the Tigers early. While tracking a fly ball, he collided with Jasson Domínguez, taking the outfielder’s arm straight to the head. According to Aaron Boone, he has not been diagnosed with a concussion, but he is in concussion protocol. The Athletic […]
Jazz Chisholm Jr. leaves with injury, Yankees lose odiously to Tigers
The June swoon that was promised arrived late, as it often does—but it is unmistakably here. The Yankees took their butts home to Yankee Stadium after an excruciating four-game sweep at the hands of the reviled Red Sox and performed in a similarly moribund fashion en route to a 7-3 loss to the Tigers. To […]
New York Yankees vs. Detroit Tigers: Ryan Weathers vs. Casey Mize
Readers, I begin this humble game thread with a question: is it better to head right back to work after a four-game sweep at the hands of your archrivals, to get an opportunity to flush it and leave it in the past? Or would an off-day at this juncture give you a much-needed chance to […]
