The Yankees and Spencer Jones have reached a crossroads
As pitchers and catchers report and teams prepare for the start of spring training, not many teams around Major League Baseball project to have a more powerful outfield than the New York Yankees in 2026. Three-time MVP Aaron Judge will continue to anchor the lineup in right field, coming off another unbelievable season: .331/.457/.688, 53 […]
Who will be the Yankees’ spring MVP?
Spring training is an enigma of a time, statistically speaking. Up and coming prospects are competing with journeymen and aging vets to beat out roster cuts, while the core players are mostly getting their timing set and aiming to stay healthy for Opening Day. Pitchers likewise aren’t showcasing their full arsenal, or are intentionally playing […]
Yankees news: Pitchers and catchers report ready to run it back
New York Daily News | Gary Phillips: Pitchers and catchers have reported, and in the Yankees’ case, well, it’s largely the same group of pitchers and catchers that were here last season. Aaron Boone and Brian Cashman have acknowledged that the team is essentially Running it Back, and the players that came to camp on […]
Yankees 2026 Season Preview: Gerrit Cole
It has been 469 days since we last saw Gerrit Cole on an MLB mound, and it won’t be that much longer before the Yankees’ ace makes his triumphant return. After missing an entire season to Tommy John surgery, it is uncertain whether we can still consider him to be the Yankees’ ace, but there […]
50 Most Notable Yankees Free Agent Signings in 50 Years: Aroldis Chapman
When Mariano Rivera retired in 2013, one of the greatest luxuries the Yankees had enjoyed in the Core Four dynasty came to an end. They had to start worrying long-term about who would pitch the ninth inning. The first man to succeed the Sandman was his setup man, David Robertson, who performed well enough to […]
I come not to praise The Shredder, but bury it in defense of Ben Rice
We need to start this article with an acknowledgement: Any list or stack ranking posted on social media is intended to generate engagement. Well, congratulations Major League Baseball, I have become engaged. On Monday night, MLB Network continued their coverage of the Top 10 Right Now, ranking various position groups. Someone—or perhaps something—called The Shredder […]
Yankees Birthday of the Day: César Cabral
Just by the nature of doing a daily birthday post, we’re going to run into some days where there’s not a truly notable Yankee from history to profile. There are also going to be some days we run into where there’s more than one beloved player. However, today is definitely the former and not the […]
Which Yankees offseason decision makes you most nervous?
Good morning, all! It’s a welcome day in Yankeeland, as pitchers and catchers officially report to spring training today. Of course, that oft-cited countdown following the last out of the World Series only means so much since plenty were already in camp a little early and dudes jogging around and lifting weights hardly feels like […]
Yankees news: Yanks easier opponent than Red Sox?
New York Post | Cooper Albers: For the second straight year, the Yankees have been called out by the team that eliminated them in October — or at least, a member of that team. While attempting to complete the All-AL-East career, Isiah Kiner-Falefa revealed that the Blue Jays were hoping the Yankees beat out the […]

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.

50 Most Notable Yankees Free Agent Signings in 50 Years: Andrew Miller
At the conclusion of the 2014 season, Brian Cashman certainly knew his team was approaching a pivot point. After missing the postseason for the first time since 2008, the Yankees GM was tasked with replacing a franchise icon — Derek Jeter, whose retirement represented the end of an era. To this end, Cashman swung a […]
Yankees 2026 Season Preview: Angel Chivilli
Heading into the 2026 season, the New York Yankees have some kinks to work out and some roles to be filled by those who are able to step up to the plate (for lack of a better phrase) and take advantage. The pitching staff is dealing with injuries—primarily to the starters—and the bullpen lost a […]
Yankees Birthday of the Day: Allie Reynolds
Allie Reynolds’ parents decided that he wouldn’t play organized baseball until after he left high school. Despite the late start to the game he wound up loving, he was good enough to make it to the big leagues with the Cleveland, and to pique the Yankees’ interest, as they sent Joe Gordon out to Ohio […]
State of the Yankees’ System: Starting Pitching
The state of pitching in modern baseball is volatile. In many cases, occupying a roster spot requires a pitcher to do things on the field that the human body simply isn’t made to do, over and over again. Every organization is full of injured pitchers, past and current Tommy John recipients, and guys in the […]
Who is the Yankees’ most dangerous rival?
Year after year, the Yankees contend with the AL East, the division that consistently outstrips its peers across the sport. This offseason was no different; while there were a number of teams across the league that put the “off” in offseason, none of them were in the AL East, as all five clubs have been […]
Yankees news: George Lombard Jr. tops Keith Law’s top Yankees prospects
The Athletic | Keith Law ($): Several publications have George Lombard Jr. as the Yankees’ top-ranked prospect and Keith Law agrees in his 2026 installation of the Yankees’ top prospect rankings. The 21-year-old shortstop was ranked at second last year and 98th overall, and moves to the front of the queue with Jasson Domínguez’s graduation […]
Yankees acquire infielder Max Schuemann from Athletics
While we’re nearing the start of spring training, the hot stove season is still on. On Monday afternoon, the Yankees made a move, although this one can probably be described as reheating something in the microwave more than turning on the stove. Earlier today, the Yankees picked up infielder Max Schuemann from the Athletics, sending […]
50 Most Notable Yankees Free Agent Signings in 50 Years: Masahiro Tanaka
The Yankees’ forays into the Japanese market have produced some mixed results. The signing of Hideki Matsui was an absolute success, as he was a very good player for the Yankees for many years, and capped it off by winning World Series MVP in 2009. On the other hand, the acquisitions of pitchers Hideki Irabu […]
Yankees 2026 Season Preview: Jazz Chisholm Jr.
After making the World Series in his first season with the New York Yankees in 2024 and joining the 30-30 club in 2025 despite missing an entire month with an oblique strain, it’s clear that Jazz Chisholm Jr.‘s influence on the Bombers has been considerable, to say the least. Yes, the team prides itself on […]
Yankees Birthday of the Day: Clete Boyer
I met Clete Boyer once. In his later years, Boyer spent summers in Cooperstown, and my family went to see the Hall of Fame once almost every summer in the mid-2000s. We had a running joke about Boyer because every time we went, there was a sign in the downtown that said “Clete Boyer: SIGNING […]
Yankees Potential Trade Target: Anthony Banda
Difficult decisions are the cost of doing business for a high-level contender, and once in a while, you may be forced to move on from a player you don’t necessarily wish to; such is the case with Anthony Banda and the Dodgers. After agreeing to a deal to avoid arbitration with the left-hander, the reigning […]
Who would be the Yankees’ current NFL comparison?
The NFL season was concluded last night with the Seattle Seahawks defeating the New England Patriots in Super Bowl LX in a relative beatdown, as Seattle’s defense throttled Drake Maye’s offensive line and put him on the ground multiple times forcing some ugly turnovers late in the game. A couple of garbage-time drives made the […]
Yankees news: Headlines to watch as camp opens up
NY Daily News | Gary Phillips ($): Yankees pitchers and catchers officially report to spring training on Wednesday, bringing with them the end of the offseason at long last. It was a drawn-out winter as the Yankees mostly held serve and retained key parts of their roster, but the few new faces that were brought […]
Super Bowl LX open thread: Seattle Seahawks vs. New England Patriots
It is nearly time for the Super Bowl, so we’ve set up a small game thread for anyone who wants to cut it up with their fellow PSA-ers while watching in hopes of the Patriots going down in flames. I assume that this is the general sentiment around these parts — not out of any […]

It’s Sunday, and you know what that means — it’s time for our weekly social media roundup! For the third time in four weeks, Jack Frost has taken over New York City, with the wind chill reaching as low as 10 below.
