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 […]
New York Yankees vs. Cincinnati Reds: Elmer Rodríguez vs. Chase Burns
We were dazzled on Friday night, and disappointed yesterday. The Yankees, and certainly the readership, are hoping to be at least satisfied come Sunday afternoon, as the club looks to win yet another series, this time against the Reds. It’s not going to be easy — Chase Burns isn’t quite Cam Schlittler, but he is […]
Yankees Birthday of the Day: Eddie Lopat
The nature of baseball as a sport means that you need more than just a star or two to be a good team. Just look at the Mike Trout/Shohei Ohtani era Angels. Of course you need excellent players as well, but having solid players across the middle and backend of the roster is what turns […]
Yankees Rivalry Roundup: Nationals fend off Rays at the Trop
Not much went right for the Yankees during their 10-2 loss to the Reds yesterday. The defense was shoddy, Will Warren got rattled and gave up a game-breaking tank, and they made mistakes at both the plate and on the bases. In short, if you knew nothing about the game aside from the fact that […]
The right schedule at the right time for the Yankees
The New York Yankees, even with their current absences, are a formidable squad. It’s with that established that we can open ourselves to acknowledging some undeniable truths about who this team is, how it got here—and a particularly significant sequence of games that began during their road trip to end May with a couple of […]
Yankees prospects: Waldo homers again but Scranton falls

Today on Pinstripe Alley – 6/21/26
The Yankees have won a few blowouts this week, and quite a few this year, so perhaps they were due to be on the receiving end of a rout. A close game early morphed into a laugher yesterday, with some shaky defense leading to a crushing three-run homer off the bat of Spencer Steer. It’s […]
Yankees news: Wells, Rodríguez return in roster shake-up
New York Post | Dan Martin: After missing the past couple of weeks with cervical headaches, Austin Wells is expected to be recalled for Sunday’s game. Manager Aaron Boone said he would “likely” be in the starting lineup his first game back. It’s been a lost season so far for the Yankees backstop, whose .533 […]
Yankees send down catcher J.C. Escarra; Austin Wells set to return
It’s roster move time, and ahead of Sunday’s series finale against the Reds, the Yankees have announced a couple of important ones with more on the way. We already covered here the movements on the pitching staff with Jake Bird going down to make room for Elmer Rodríguez, but there will be a change behind […]
Gerrit Cole’s start pushed back, Elmer Rodríguez to pitch Sunday with Jake Bird demoted
We don’t get an ace-off after all. With the Yankees trying to manage a pitching rotation that’s both played at its highest level and seen its share of injuries, Gerrit Cole will be pushed back a day and make his start with an additional day of rest on Monday in Detroit. The club is trying […]
Yankees bludgeoned as Warren melts down following fifth inning error
One of the biggest assets for a starting pitcher is to maintain composure when facing adversity, and that is not a skill that Will Warren has fully developed yet. Perhaps the biggest knock on the young pitcher is the way he lets innings spiral when something goes wrong, particularly when his defense makes an error […]
New York Yankees vs. Cincinnati Reds: Will Warren vs. Andrew Abbott
Cam Schlittler shoved on center stage in the series opener against the Reds, tallying a career-high 13 strikeouts in his six shutout innings. His start along with early home runs by Jazz Chisholm Jr. and Ben Rice carried the day as the Yankees opened the final series of a long home stand with a 5-0 […]
Does the Knicks’ championship run take pressure off the 2026 Yankees or add to it?
A week ago today, a long, city-wide nightmare finally came to an end. At 11:30 pm on June 13, 2026, the New York Knicks won the NBA Finals, securing their first title in 53 years. Thursday’s parade was a sight to behold. As I left New York City in the aftermath of the Knicks’ first-ever […]
