Series Preview: Yankees vs. Rangers

The Rangers swept the Yankees last season, one of only 4 teams to actually win a series against the Bombers in the new Yankee Stadium. Talk about an impressive home field advantage. While the Rangers had success against the Yankees in their new ballpark, historically the Rangers have been beaten up in New York, going ...

The Importance of CC Sabathia: No no-hitter? No problem.

Remember CC Sabathia’s almost no-hitter? Just kidding, of course you do. It was one of the better pitching performances the Yankees have been on the right side of in a while. Well I found this article by Joe Henderson of The Tampa Tribune which says that good old Joe Girardi would have pulled the Yankees ...

As long as you celebrate with a certain amount of responsibility you will be able to ...

Pujols for Howard? Let's Hope Not.

Why do the Albert Pujols and Ryan Howard swap rumors pertain to the Yankees? The Phillies are by far the best team in the National League. You could have argued last year that the Dodgers and the Cardinals were on par with the team from the City of Brotherly Love. Realistically, however, there is no ...
Aceves Vying for 5th Spot in Rotation
New Arod Story a Headline? Hardly.
Alex Rodriguez has been summoned to speak to federal investigators about Dr. Anthony Galea, a Canadian doctor who is being charged with numerous crimes after his assistant, Mary Anne Catalano, was caught crossing the border with HGH. Any story with Arod in the headline will garner significant attention but this story is of little importance ...
2010 Previews: Sergio Mitre

2009: Sergio Mitre was inserted into the Yankees bullpen (and occasionally starting rotation) mid-season after rehabbing from Tommy John surgery to help solve the Joba Chamberlain problem. Mitre was primarily used to fill in for Joba when his pitch count prevented him from making a start while making the occasional relief appearance in. For the ...
