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 ...

Yankees official on Vernon Wells trade: Where was this money in December?

When I woke up this morning I felt like the Vernon Wells trade was just a (bad) dream. Unfortunately when I opened Google Reader the stark reality hit me. Vernon Wells is a Yankee and somehow, despite claiming they were poor all offseason, they are paying $13 million over two years for him, according to ...
Joe Girardi gives State of the Yankee Union address

Yankees manager Joe Girardi met with reporters yesterday and went over quite a few topics. Here is the run down via Chad Jennings of the Journal News: • On the offense: Girardi explains that the Yankees offense will rely on speed more rather than the home runs as they've done in recent years. • On the Brett ...
Hal Steinbrenner says the Yankees have talked extension with Robinson Cano

The Yankees have an unofficial policy that they will not offer extensions except in rare cases. Robinson Cano has been one of the exceptions in the past and it looks like there is a chance that he might be again. Yankees owner Hal Steinbrenner told Wallace Matthews of ESPNNewYork.com that they have at least started extension ...
Curtis Granderson wants to sign an extension with the Yankees

This is the final year of Curtis Granderson's contract, but if it were up to him he would sign an extension to stay with the Yankees long-term, according to Anthony McCarron of the NY Daily News. More guaranteed money? Of course. Granderson even admits as much saying, "I'd be a fool not to (want an extension)." While ...
Yankees hitting coach Kevin Long adjusts Kevin Youkilis’ stance

This is not exactly new, but I didn't want to ignore it all offseason since it has clearly become part of the narrative. Yankees hitting coach Kevin Long has been tinkering with Kevin Youkilis' swing before Spring Training even started. “We looked at old film and compared it to 2012,” Long told Dan Martin of the NY ...
Yankees’ Alex Rodriguez denies steroid use

A detailed report published Tuesday morning by the Miami New Times accused Alex Rodriguez of using HGH from at least 2009 through last season, but A-Rod is denying it. Via Joel Sherman of the NY Post (links: 1, 2, 3, 4): “The news report about a purported relationship between Alex Rodriguez and Anthony Bosch are not true. ...
Cashman: Yankees still looking but willing to settle

The Yankees still haven't replaced catcher Russell Martin or DH Raul Ibanez, they're still looking, but it sounds like GM Brian Cashman would be willing to take the team as is to spring training. “I know it’s getting late, but we’re still looking," GM Brian Cashman told Wallace Matthews of ESPNNewYork.com. “We’re open for business, but ...
Hal Steinbrenner: $189 million budget for 2014 and beyond

The Owners Meetings are going on this week which gave Ken Davidoff of the NY Post a chance to catch up with Yankees owner Hal Steinbrenner to ask him some question about the team and The Budget Boss stirred up some controversy. The biggest bombshell that he dropped was the news that the Yankees goal of ...
