New York Yankees @ Detroit Tigers: Carlos Rodón vs. Casey Mize
June has, in general, been a good month for the Yankees. Despite losing multiple outfielders to injury, the team has not only kept its head above water, but has also surpassed the Rays for the AL East lead (which currently sits at two games). Despite some commendable play over the first three weeks, though, they […]
The sinker could be the solution to Ryan Weathers’ home run woes
Welcome back to our series on the innovations the Yankees pitching department is making with the sinker! They’ve dusted off the pitch from a period of league-wide dormancy and have a renewed focus on disseminating it across as much of their pitching room as are willing to use it. Last month, I kicked off the […]
The Carlos Rodón Yankees Experience, Explained
With summer upon us, I recently found myself alone on a long, quiet drive home after dropping my daughter off for camp with her grandparents. As the miles rolled by and the hum of the tires turned over old memories, I wandered down a self-inflicted rabbit hole about how the brain works. Eventually, I landed […]
How much of Giancarlo Stanton will the Yankees see in 2026?
We recently put out a call in The Feed to take the temperature of Yankees fans on Giancarlo Stanton’s outlook for the remainder of 2026. The story of Stanton’s season is unfortunately the same as it ever was, at least since 2019. Following a 158-game debut in pinstripes, the former NL MVP had several issues […]
Yankees catcher Ali Sánchez placed on paternity list; J.C. Escarra recalled
The Yankees’ catching carousel keeps moving along, as only days after getting sent down to Triple-A, J.C. Escarra is once again back with the big-league club to replace Ali Sánchez, who was placed on the paternity list. This move comes a day after Sánchez had to leave early in a game against the Tigers, having […]
VOTE: How would you grade Yankees manager Aaron Boone thus far in 2026?
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. Sign up here to participate in the weekly emailed surveys. It’s hard to believe that upon Opening Day 2026, Aaron Boone began his ninth season […]
Yankees Birthday of the Day: Hensley Meulens
The island nation of Curaçao is accustomed to punching above its weight in the sporting world. Well above. Ahead of this year’s FIFA World Cup, they became the smallest country—both by land area and population—to qualify for the tournament. That milestone accompanies its continued ascendence as a baseball hotbed. You can thank Curaçao for the […]
Yankees Rivalry Roundup: Royals’ Wacha outduels Rays’ Rasmussen
A 5-3 final score does not feel super lousy if you’re just hearing about it in passing. But if you watched any of the Yankees’ game last night in Detroit, it sure felt lousy. A brief 1-0 lead was lost due to an ineffective Gerrit Cole, as he gave up an uncharacteristic nine hits and […]
Yankees prospects: Week 13 minor league recap
It’s the end of the first half of the minor league season, and only one of the affiliates had a chance to clinch a playoff spot. Somerset had a subpar week, so all four affiliates will now have a clean slate entering the start of the second half. Some key prospects went on the shelf, […]

Should the Yankees deploy a six-man rotation?
The Yankees have hit a bit of a rough patch, losing their last three games and four of their last five after opening up their latest road trip with a 5-3 defeat at the hands of the Tigers. Gerrit Cole looked his most vulnerable since returning from the IL, going 4.1 innings and allowing five […]
Yankees news: Judge, Rice, and Bellinger in a good spot in All-Star vote
MLB.com | Brian Murphy and Shanthi Sepe-Chepuru: With Phase 1 of the All-Star Game voting process concluding on Thursday, several Yankees have a good chance of moving on to Phase 2. Ben Rice is the second-most-voted first baseman behind Vladimir Guerrero Jr. and should advance. The same can be said about Cody Bellinger and Aaron […]
Sloppy Yankees drop series opener to Tigers
There are plenty of baseball games where you can pinpoint an individual moment to being what the result hinges on. There are others where things just always feel destined for a loss. Despite a close final score, Monday’s game against the Tigers felt like one of the latter for the Yankees. On the mound, Gerrit […]

New York Yankees @ Detroit Tigers: Gerrit Cole vs. Framber Valdez
The Yankees had a bit of a frustrating end to their homestand over the weekend. Having taken the opening game of the series against the Reds, they were held in check in both of the next two, allowing Cincinnati to take the series. However, despite their reputation, the Yankees have actually had a pretty decent […]
Ask Pinstripe Alley: Yankees mailbag questions request
It’s been an up and down week for the Yankees, as they took a series against the surprise contender White Sox but dropped their weekend series to the Reds scoring just three runs in their two losses. There were still plenty of highlights to point out, from Cam Schlittler dominating for another six innings of […]
Yankees recall Yerry de los Santos ahead of Tigers series
The New York Yankees announced on Monday that they called up right-handed relief pitcher Yerry de los Santos to the major leagues to shore up their bullpen ahead of their series with the Detroit Tigers. The team made the announcement via X. The hard-throwing sinker-changeup specialist takes Elmer Rodríguez’s place after his spot start on […]
Aaron Judge, Ben Rice, and Cody Bellinger lead Yankees in MLB All-Star voting
Earlier this afternoon, MLB released its second All-Star balloting update. The Yankees are well-represented, with Aaron Judge, Ben Rice, and Cody Bellinger all in position to advance in the voting. As a refresher, MLB uses a (semi-convoluted) multi-phase system for its All-Star ballots. We’re currently in Phase 1, which will end on Thursday. At the […]
Yankees Birthday of the Day: Jack Zalusky
One of the consensus best baseball movies to ever hit the silver screen is Field of Dreams. And while the story isn’t solely focused on him, one of the most appealing characters through a key part of it is Archie “Moonlight” Graham, whose entire dream was to take one major league at-bat. I won’t spoil […]
Yankees Rivalry Roundup: Rays trim Yanks’ division lead to two
Not the most enjoyable Sunday for Yankees fans, huh? Elmer Rodríguez made one glaring mistake in his spot start. Unfortunately, that mistake resulted in a three-run home run. On a weekend when the Bronx Bombers couldn’t buy a hit with runners in scoring position, that was enough to sink the Yanks, losing the game and […]
New York Yankees vs. Detroit Tigers: Series Preview
After a promising start to the three-game set at home, the Yankees are coming off of a disappointing couple of games against the Reds. The last two days saw the Bombers plate just three runs in total, while giving up double digits on Saturday. But, they are right back on the horse, as they hit […]
Today on Pinstripe Alley – 6/22/26
For whatever reason, the Yankees just haven’t been able to shake the Reds of all teams. Since MLB changed its schedule to allow all teams to play at least one series against each other on an annual basis in 2022, the Yankees have now lost four of five series to the Reds, who even at […]
Yankees news: Wells feels good after return, Grisham progressing well
New York Daily News | Peter Sblendorio: Austin Wells made his return yesterday after a two-week stint on the IL due to cervical headaches. Wells went 0-for-2 and was lifted in the sixth inning, but said he felt good about his first day back. “I felt solid,” Wells said afterward. “I saw the ball well, […]
Yankees Social Media Spotlight: The Impossible Has Happened
It’s Sunday once more, and you know what that means — it’s time for our weekly social media roundup! Some weeks, putting together this series a bit of a slog, as I scour the web for something, anything, vaguely Yankees-related to highlight. This week, though? Strap in, because between the Knicks’ championship, HOPE Week, Stonewall, Juneteenth, […]
Yankees fall asleep against Reds, lose series
I want to be more annoyed about this game, but honestly the moment that it ended I didn’t really remember much about it. There were two moments the whole game — Ben Rice hit a home run to give the Yankees the lead, Tyler Stephenson hit a three-run shot to put the Reds ahead. I […]
