Ask Pinstripe Alley: Yankees mailbag questions request
Here we are, awaiting the start of another postseason run. The Yankees’ season could be over in the next two to three days, or it could take us on a journey through October with the chance to finally deliver that elusive 28th title. Their run will begin as it did last year in the Wild […]
The Yankees’ top defensive plays of September
While the Yankees were ultimately unable to overtake the Tampa Bay Rays for the American League East title and thus the AL’s number one seed, they put together a splendid month of September, finishing 15-8. They did so while navigating a roster that was often in flux, welcoming some players back from stays on the […]
How to watch Yankees vs. Red Sox in AL Wild Card Series: Start times, channels, and more
The MLB postseason is finally upon us, and the No. 4 seed Yankees are kicking things off by facing the Red Sox in the Wild Card Series, just as they did in 2025. New York will end the season at least four games better than Boston, but as they say, all records reset to 0-0 […]
Yankees September Approval Poll: Brian Cashman
The thing about chasing an object is that if it matches your speed, there is really nothing you can do. The New York Yankees learned this hard lesson down the stretch when any goals they had of running down the Rays to at least make it a competitive fight down the stretch fell flat — […]
Yankees Birthday of the Day: Whitey Witt
World Series champion with the Yankees.Best friends with Babe Ruth.Walter Johnson’s kryptonite. That’s one heck of a three-line resume. It belongs to a diminutive speedster who patrolled center field and held down the leadoff spot for the Yankees in the early 1920s: Whitey Witt. Witt came to New York via Philadelphia after falling out with […]
Why the Yankees can win the World Series
The playoffs are officially here and the Yankees are set to add another chapter to their storied rivalry with the Red Sox. The two teams will face each other in the postseason for the seventh time, this edition a rematch of last year’s AL Wild Card Series. The Yankees advanced in three games as Cam […]
Yankees Rivalry Roundup: Astros, Phillies nail down last playoff spots
Game 162 doesn’t hit quite like it used to with the proliferation of Wild Card spots, but as long as there are still some stakes, it offers some excitement. Selfishly, I always prefer when the Yankees don’t have stakes and I can just neutrally watch the chaos, which is what yesterday at least partially offered […]
Yankees must quiet this Red Sox offense in the Wild Card Series
The Yankees gained an extra day of rest with a nor’easter canceling Game 162 against the Orioles on Sunday. It means they’ll have two days off before opening their 2026 playoff odyssey Tuesday night against the Red Sox in the AL Wild Card Series. Boston has one less day of rest after losing to the […]
Red Sox pitching staff poses problem for Yankees in the Wild Card Series
Last year, the Yankees lost Gerrit Cole, in what was probably the last true year of his prime. A loss like that would reverberate throughout a team’s entire season, usually. Instead, the Yankees more or less recreated Cole in the form of Cam Schlittler, now the favorite for the AL Cy Young and starting Game […]
Today on Pinstripe Alley – 9/28/26
The regular season was buried in the rain yesterday, but for over a week now, the Yankees have had their eyes on October. OK fine, due to how Major League Baseball lined it up this year, we have to be pedantic and talk about late September first. The Wild Card Series against the Red Sox […]
Yankees news: Cam Schlittler draws Game 1 start
New York Post | Greg Joyce: The Yankees will hand the ball to Cam Schlittler in Game 1 of the Wild Card Series against the Red Sox, the team announced Sunday. After reportedly considering opening their playoff run with Max Fried on the hill, they instead chose their presumptive Cy Young Award winner. “He wants […]
Yankees’ regular season finale against Orioles cancelled due to rain
Well, that was dumb. About three hours after the scheduled first pitch, and about an hour after the original time before it was moved up earlier this weekend, the Yankees and Orioles’ season finale in the Bronx was officially cancelled. The nor’easter affecting the East Coast this weekend already caused Saturday’s game to be moved […]
Yankees confirm starting pitchers for AL Wild Card Series
The Yankees recently confirmed who’s taking the mound for the best-of-three American League Wild Card Series against the Red Sox. Cy Young frontrunner Cam Schlittler will take the bump for Game 1 in the Bronx to kick off the MLB postseason. Max Fried will hopefully help the Yankees advance in Game 2, and if needed, […]
New York Yankees vs. Baltimore Orioles: Elmer Rodríguez vs. Shane Baz
We have reached the end of the 2026 regular season. In a couple hours, the 162-game marathon will be complete and full focus will turn to the sprint that is the playoffs. However, we still have nine innings (maybe fewer if the weather has anything to say) of regular season ball today against the Orioles. […]
Yankees Social Media Spotlight: A Wet Week of Wonder
It’s Sunday once more, and you know what that means — it’s time for our weekly social media roundup! With the four seed locked up and the division out of reach, most of this week was a late September spring training for the Yankees, complete with a weekend filled with rain, rain, and somehow, even […]
Yankees Birthday of the Day: David Hale
The 2019 Yankees are my second favorite squad in recent-ish memory (after 2017), in large part because of the sheer number of surprise performances from unlikely players – Gio Urshela! Mike Tauchman! Cameron Maybin! – that buoyed the team. David Hale isn’t the first name that comes to mind when you think about that year, […]
Yankees Rivalry Roundup: Guardians clinch AL Central, AL West still in play
With more nasty weather thrashing the East Coast, the Yankees did not play today—meaning all eyes could shift to the rest of the league. New York doesn’t have anything more to play for, but that was far from the case for many of their AL contemporaries. One division was finally decided on this penultimate day […]
Today on Pinstripe Alley – 9/26/26
We’ve reached the strange end of what’s been a pretty strange season. Thanks to a Nor’easter that slammed into the east coast this weekend, the Yankees preemptively moved their originally scheduled Saturday game to Friday, leaving a day off before the last game of the season. Yet the storm still rages, and it’s possible that […]
Yankees news: Wild Card Series previews and predictions
ESPN | Jorge Castillo: The Yankees and Red Sox will face each other in the playoffs for the seventh time. It’s a rematch of last season’s AL Wild Card Series when Cam Schlittler memorably burst onto the national stage with eight shutout innings and 12 strikeouts to seal the series in the decisive Game 3. […]
Recapping the Yankees’ low-minors seasons
The minor-league season has officially come to an end, a season in which we saw a bit of a shift from the usual trend of Yankees’ minor league seasons. We didn’t see too many midseason departures due to a weird deadline, we didn’t see a plethora of starting pitchers excel and we saw, for once, […]
Yankees Birthday of the Day: Bobby Shantz
“But it turned out awful nice, I’ll tell you that — 16 years. You know, I lasted more than I thought I would. Boy, what a life. I really enjoyed every minute of it. Even when I was horseshit, I still liked it.” As he approached his 100th birthday in 2025, Bobby Shantz took the […]
Yankees Rivalry Roundup: AL West madness reaches new low
Having moved a scheduled Saturday game against the Orioles up to Friday for a straight doubleheader, the Yankees and O’s split the twin bill. Baltimore blew out Brendan Beck and company in a 10-2 loss in the opener—an ignominious follow-up to CC Sabathia’s number retirement—but Ryan Yarbrough and Will Warren combined to lead them to […]
Today on Pinstripe Alley – 9/26/26
A good chunk of the East Coast is getting slammed by a nor’easter this weekend, so if you’re in the area, we hope you stay safe! Since this current Yankees series against the Orioles is meaningless aside from the obvious goal of staying healthy, the game originally scheduled for today was played yesterday in a […]
Yankees news: Schlittler, Fried still both in play to start Game 1
MLB.com | Bryan Hoch: Cam Schlittler put the finishing touches on his Cy Young season Thursday night against the Rays. It wasn’t his sharpest start, Schlittler needing 70 pitches to navigate three innings, but it put his ERA on the season at 1.95, the lowest mark by a Yankee starter since Ron Guidry posted a […]
Yankees pitchers strike out a whopping 17 to split Orioles doubleheader
It wasn’t exactly a meaningful game, but the Yankees projected a much better image in the nightcap against the Baltimore Orioles and won it 6-3 after losing the first game in ugly fashion. New York’s pitchers certainly brought the strikeout stuff for this one, as Ryan Yarbrough, Will Warren, Brent Headrick, John Schreiber, and Alexander […]
