Yankees’ Jake Bird is looking like a completely different pitcher
Last year, the Yankees dealt two legitimately interesting prospects, Roc Riggio and Ben Shields, to get reliever Jake Bird from the Colorado Rockies at the Trade Deadline. Their experiment wasn’t successful, at least in 2025, as he posted a 27.00 ERA in a couple of innings with the team before being optioned to Triple-A, where […]
2026 Double-A Somerset Preview
Last week, the Yankees’ minor-league season officially began in Buffalo, where the Triple-A Scranton/Wilkes-Barre RailRiders opened their season with a shutout victory over the Bisons. The RailRiders will be priority viewing all season for those who like to keep up with the minor leagues for multiple reasons. But there are still intriguing prospects that aren’t […]
Yankees Birthday of the Day: Jon Lieber
It’s hard to make your mark on a franchise in a single season. Juan Soto is one of the Yankees’ most prominent one-and-done players, finishing third in 2024 AL MVP voting and helping lead his team to the pennant in his sole year in pinstripes, but he’s a notable exception. Jon Lieber spent 14 years […]
Yankees Rivalry Roundup: Rockies win in extras for series victory over Jays
The Yankees wrapped up their second series of the year with another win, besting the Mariners 5-3 on the backs of another dominant Cam Schlittler start and some bombs from Paul Goldschmidt and Ben Rice. The rotation continues to put up zeroes, and Schlittler is making history with how few baserunners he’s allowed while striking […]
Yankees Sequence of the Week: Max Fried (3/31)
The Yankees’ pitching staff as a whole has been magnificent, allowing six runs across their first six games and tallying three shutouts in the first five. Max Fried has been at the forefront of this staff-wide domination, not allowing a run across his first two starts and 13.1 innings. His second start of the year […]
Yankees prospects: Jasson Domínguez hits first homer of 2026
Triple-A Scranton/Wilkes-Barre RailRiders: L, 4-5 at Rochester Red Wings LF Jasson Domínguez 1-4, HR, BB, RBI, K, SB — led off game by blasting Riley Cornelio’s second pitch for a solo shot and later swiped a bagCF Spencer Jones 0-4, BB, 4 K — no-contact day for Spencer; fanned as potential tying run in ninth1B […]
What was the highlight of the Yankees’ season-opening road trip?
It’s hard to demand a better start to the Yankees’ 2026 campaign than this 5-1 season-opening West Coast road trip. It’s tempting to be greedy and wish that they hadn’t been walked off in Seattle on Monday, but they lost a tough game in an opposing ballpark to a team that fell a win shy […]
Yankees news: Carlos Rodón throws, Luis Gil reports to Scranton
NJ.com | Randy Miller: Yesterday, it was reported that Yankees starter Carlos Rodón, who began the year on the injured list due to offseason surgery, was dealing with right hamstring tightness. Although the left-hander did throw a bullpen session yesterday, it appears that, although the Yankees believe the injury is a “minor thing,” the start […]
Cam Schlittler dominates again, Yankees take series in Seattle
The story of the Yankees’ 2026 season so far has been all about the pitching. They opened the season with two shutouts, courtesy of Max Fried and Cam Schlittler. The second time through the rotation began on Tuesday night, and Fried continued his good work, once again not allowing a run. That set the stage […]
New York Yankees @ Seattle Mariners: Cam Schlittler vs. George Kirby
After opening up the new season on a West Coast road trip, the Yankees are finally headed home this weekend. However before they do, there’s till one more game to finish up, as they’re set to play the Mariners one last time. The Yankees dropped the opener in Seattle on a Cal Raleigh walk-off, but […]
Potential for exciting, successful season is within Scranton/Wilkes Barre RailRiders’ grasp
Shelley Duncan likes the team he has been given this season. A lot. He realizes it could totally change in a few weeks, given the nature of minor-league baseball. But for now, the manager of the Triple-A Scranton/Wilkes-Barre RailRiders is excited about the group he currently has. It has some experience, plenty of talent, and […]
Yankees and Phillies face the negativity of recent playoff failures
Recently, fellow PSA writer Jeff Middleton wrote an appealing article covering the Hope-O-Meter poll that The Athletic conducted and how it showed a particularly pessimistic outlook regarding the Yankees in 2026—check that out over here. It sort of goes without saying that each outlook is assessed while keeping the expectations for that specific team in […]
How many games can an MLB player miss and still win an award?
Ahead of the 2023-2024 season, the National Basketball Association implemented a rule requiring players to play in at least 65 games in order to be eligible for end-of-season awards such as league MVP, All-NBA honors, and Clutch Player of the Year. Designed to tackle two issues, tanking to increase draft lottery odds and fan discontent […]
Yankees Birthday of the Day: Phil Niekro
For many players, making the Major Leagues is the top of the mountain, and generally the great accomplishment of a career. For someone of Phil Niekro’s status, that accomplishment was blown out of the water by sticking around for a quarter-century, winning 300 games, and making the Baseball Hall of Fame. It was a long […]
Yankees Rivalry Roundup: Tigers blow big lead in the desert
Don’t look now, but one month of the season is already in the books. Okay, not exactly, as, while March is now over, teams only ever play a handful of regular season games in the month. However, we are now fully into the swing of the 2026 season, with every team having a handful of […]
9-9-9, closer entrances, and making Fetch happen
A couple things have induced dread in me in baseball’s first week. There have been major wins — the Yankee pitching staff is fantastic! ABS is a lot of fun! — but some cringey losses. The first is the corporatization of the 9-9-9 task, a Twitter meme that challenges fans to consume nine hot dogs […]
Yankees prospects: Weather scraps Scranton again
Triple-A Scranton/Wilkes-Barre RailRiders: Sorry everyone, it’s another weather-related postponement for the RailRiders. This time it was rain up in Rochester, just a few days after freezing temperatures postponed a game in Buffalo over the weekend. They’ll make this one up in a couple days as part of a doubleheader on April 3rd. The official word […]
Should the Yankees extend their young prospects?
Long-term deals for top prospects are all the rage. Yesterday morning, news broke of the Mariners and minor-league infielder Colt Emerson agreeing on an eight-year deal worth a minimum of $95 million, a record for player who has yet to make his MLB debut. This, just hours after reports emerged that the Brewers were nearing […]
Yankees news: Carlos Rodón reports hamstring tightness
SNY | Phillip Martínez: The Yankees hoped to have left-hander Carlos Rodon back at some point in April, but those plans might have hit a snag. On Tuesday, manager Aaron Boone revealed that the southpaw, who had a 3.09 ERA and struck out 203 batters last year before encountering some elbow issues in the postseason […]
Max Fried resets the tone as Yankees even series in Seattle
The Yankees got exactly the response they needed Tuesday night, bouncing back from their first loss of the season with a 5-0 win over the Mariners in Seattle. After Monday’s frustrating walk-off defeat, New York handed the ball to Max Fried on normal rest thanks to Sunday’s rare offday, and the ace delivered exactly the […]
New York Yankees @ Seattle Mariners: Max Fried vs. Logan Gilbert
The Yankees finally took one on the chin Monday night, as Cal Raleigh delivered the walk-off winner for the Mariners in Seattle. After opening the season with a three-game sweep of the San Francisco Giants, New York dropped its first game of 2026 in a frustratingly getting walked off in a 2-1 loss. It might […]
Yankees fans voiced pessimism in “Hope-O-Meter” poll
The New York Yankees are off to as good a start as you can ask for in the 2026 Major League Baseball season. After a series sweep of the San Francisco Giants on the road, they travel up the west coast and play the Seattle Mariners for a three-game series before a day off and […]
The Yankees All-March Birthday Team
Back in August, I began a series here at Pinstripe Alley where I was going to put together an All-Star Yankee team of players who were born in a given month. Since then, we as a staff have started doing daily posts for the year 2026, highlighting a Yankee from history whose birthday happens to land on that […]

Yankees Rivalry Roundup: Undefeated Blue Jays throttled by winless Rockies
It was unfortunate to see the Yankees’ perfect 3-0 record go by the wayside. Obviously that was never going to last, but it was almost more annoying to lose a close game, even when the opponent is a tough one in Seattle. Ryan Weathers didn’t go very deep, the bullpen was exposed a bit with […]
