Hiroki Kuroda tosses a shutout as Yankees take the series from the O’s
Hiroki Kuroda was at his best and gave up just five hits over nine shutout innings as the Yankees beat the Orioles 3-0 to take two-out-of-three against the O's in the Bronx this weekend. Kuroda's splitter looked great as he generated 21 ground balls to just four fly outs. He struck out five and didn't walk ...

Three-run error leads to 5-2 Yankees win over Orioles
A seventh inning three-run error by Orioles center fielder Adam Jones opened the doors for a 5-2 Yankees victory with CC Sabathia on the mound at Yankee Stadium. The Yankees and O's were tied going into the bottom of the seventh inning when the Yankees got a two-out rally going when Kevin Youkilis was walked intentionally ...

Missed games in April could help the Yankees down the road, plus notes
Spahn, Sain and pray for rain. The 1948 Braves had two good pitchers, Warren Spahn, and Johnny Sain, who were honored in a poem called "Pray for rain" because, well, that was the only way it was thought they could win. For the second day in a row the Yankees were rained out which hurts because the ...

Ichiro signing might be more evidence of Yankees front office rift, and lots of notes
It was a little curious this offseason when after the Yankees refused to offer anybody a multi-year contract and even turned down a reasonable one-year offer from Russell Martin only to see them sign a 39-year-old Ichiro Suzuki to a two-year deal. Sure, Ichiro finished very strong while he was with the Yankees, but in his ...
Yankees sign Clay Rapada to a minor league deal, plus other notes
The Yankees have signed, or re-signed, the recently released lefty specialist Clay Rapada to a minor league deal the team announced yesterday. Rapada was a big part of the Yankees pen last season as he had a 2.82 ERA, a 8.9 K/9, and a 4.0 BB/9 in 70 appearances last year. He was dominant against lefties ...

5 home runs propel Yankees to third win in a row
The Yankees were expected to have less power than last year, but they hit five home runs and got a strong performance by Andy Pettitte in a dominating 14-1 victory in Cleveland. Robinson Cano, Kevin Youkilis, Brennan Boesch, Ichiro Suzuki, and Lyle Overbay all homered. They were all kind of tack on home runs too as ...

Nick Swisher said it “hurt” that the Yankees never made him an offer
Before the offseason started there were rumors that Nick Swisher was looking for Jayson Werth type money (more than $100 million) as a free agent so it made sense that the Yankees, unwilling to overpay, would look elsewhere for an outfielder. Then came another disappointing playoff performance and it was clear that Swish wouldn't be getting ...

Cano and Hafner power the Yankees to win against the Tribe
Robinson Cano hit two home runs and Travis Hafner hit one homer with four RBI's as the offense carried the Yankees to a 11-6 win against the Indians in Cleveland this afternoon. This was Hafner's first return to Cleveland since he left the only team he's ever known for the Yankees this offseason. He got a ...

Yankees off to slow start, but it’s not time to panic
Before the season started the two things that we expected to be good from the Yankees were Robinson Cano and the pitching staff. Unfortunately, that wasn't the case the first week of the season and they have gotten off to a slow 2-4 start. That doesn't mean that it's time to panic or give up on ...

7 shutout innings by CC Sabathia helps Yankees avoid sweep
CC Sabathia didn't have his best stuff and his velocity is still in the 90-92 mph range, but he was still able to lead the Yankees to a 5-0 victory behind a strong seven-inning, shutout performance against tough Tigers lineup. Sabathia put runners on in every inning except the seventh, but the Tigers really only challenged ...
