Morning, all! A video of a pair of Yankees fans getting punched in the face at Globe Life Field has gone viral, with the Rangers saying the participants were kicked out of the stadium but declining to comment if they received a long term ban. Wyatt Langford is continuing to progress in his return from […]

Yankees Birthday of the Day: Sterling Hitchcock

Often, we hear about those who contributed to the New York Yankees’ best years in franchise history. Those names are etched not just on the walls of Yankee Stadium, but also on some in Cooperstown through the Baseball Hall of Fame and, of course, in the videos of their work in the biggest moments. But […]

What should we make of the Yankees’ recent prospect promotions?

The Yankees are riding high out in the Lone Star State, securing another series win with a dominant Cam Schlittler start and homers from Austin Wells and Aaron Judge. They’ll go for the sweep again after failing to secure it in Houston, but they’ve added an even more interesting detail to today’s finale: their No. […]

Yankees news: Elmer Rodríguez, George Lombard Jr. earn promotions

NY Daily News | Gary Phillips: The Yankees are promoting 22-year-old right-hander Elmer Rodríguez to make his MLB debut on Wednesday against the Texas Rangers. It’s a well-deserved call-up, as he was sporting a brilliant 1.27 ERA in 21.1 Triple-A innings, with seven walks and 20 strikeouts. Rodríguez, as described by Triple-A bullpen coach Peter […]

Yankees hold on in Texas behind Cam Schlittler and a showcase on defense

So far this year the Yankees have regularly teetered on a knife’s edge from game to game. They typically do enough to win a game but routinely give themselves enough opportunities to give it away. The late innings following a quotidian quality start from Cam Schlittler were typically dicey for the Yankee bullpen, but a […]

14-16 – Rangers saddle deGrom with 3-2 loss to Yankees

The Texas Rangers scored two runs but the New York Yankees scored three runs. The Yankees got the customary two-out first inning run that the generous Rangers hand out every game. With some excellent starting pitching and some highlight-reel defense from both teams, score stays there. Sixth inning, 1-0 game. The Rangers get the first […]

New York Yankees @ Texas Rangers: Cam Schlittler vs. Jacob deGrom

The Yankees got off to a strong start in the Lone Star State last night, dispatching the Rangers 4-2 behind a trio of home runs and another Max Fried quality start. Tonight, one of the league’s most precocious fireballers will face a living legend. Cam Schlittler takes aim at Jacob deGrom as the Bombers seek […]

So, who on the Yankees is allowed to challenge balls and strikes?

I’m writing this before the Yankees take on the Rangers Monday night, so it’s subject to change, but at this moment Jazz Chisholm Jr. is the worst player in baseball when it comes to the ABS challenge system. His 14 percent success rate is the lowest in the sport, and this weekend against the Astros […]

Yankees At-Bat of the Week: José Caballero (4/25)

When the Yankees learned that Anthony Volpe had been playing through much of 2025 with a partially torn labrum in his left shoulder and would miss the start of the season while rehabbing from surgery, it’s a good thing they had his readymade replacement on the big league roster. Thanks to a shrewd piece of […]

Yankees Birthday of the Day: Tom Sturdivant

The late 1950s were among the best of times in the rich history of the New York Yankees. While the likes of Mickey Mantle, Yogi Berra, and Whitey Ford made the headlines, those years featured deep rosters for the Bombers, including exemplary depth and talent on the mound. Among that unsung crowd during that time, […]

Yankees to call up top prospect Elmer Rodríguez

In a bit of surprising news, the Yankees will be calling up one of their top pitching prospects, Elmer Rodríguez, to make a spot start this week. Aaron Boone confirmed today that Rodríguez would start tomorrow afternoon’s series finale with the Rangers. Will Warren was originally scheduled to start, but will instead see his outing […]

Yankees Rivalry Roundup: Boston stymies Toronto, Tampa keeps pace

A light Monday slate, along with some of the Yanks’ rivals facing each other, made for a quiet night. The good news about these teams playing each other is that someone has to lose. The bad news is someone has to win. Monday, for example, Boston and Tampa took down Toronto and Cleveland, respectively. With […]

Rating your Yankees hot takes

Last week, Andrew put out a post on our feed asking for your hot takes, and you all delivered. With the Yankees rolling and on their way to another competitive season, there’s plenty of things to get ambitious about, so let’s see what’s got you all fired up after a month or so of play. […]

How might the Yankees handle the upcoming roster crunch?

At some point in the near future — either later this week or early next week — Anthony Volpe will be activated from the injured list to make his season debut after starting the year on the injured list due to offseason shoulder surgery. Due both to Volpe’s struggles last season and José Caballero’s strong […]

Yankees prospects: Week 5 minor league recap

Another week of Yankees minor league baseball is in the books, and the big stories this week were not about the prospects themselves. Gerrit Cole, Carlos Rodón, and Anthony Volpe are continuing rehab assignments as they near their season debuts for the Yankees, while the RailRiders are getting contributions from multiple prospects who could be […]

Which of the Yankees’ division rivals is the biggest threat now?

By any account, the Yankees’ superlative play as of late has made them the favorites in an AL East division that looked hyper-competitive coming into the year. The Rays are close in New York’s rearview mirror, but the heavy hitters that everyone expected to compete with the Yankees in the division this year, the Orioles, […]

Yankees news: Giancarlo Stanton to the IL with calf strain

MLB Trade Rumors | Anthony Franco: The Giancarlo Stanton Calf Saga is essentially at the conclusion that always seemed most likely. The Yankees had the roster flexibility to wait and see how Stanton’s tight calf responded to a couple days of rest after he was pulled from their game on Friday in Houston, but they […]

Yankees hang on to beat Rangers after Judge, Rice home runs

While the Yankees’ Monday night game in Texas was never a blowout, much of it felt like it was trending towards a fairly comfortable Bombers win. Ben Rice and Aaron Judge continued to be stalwarts in the Yankees’ lineup, each going deep to help build up a lead. Meanwhile on the mound, starter Max Fried […]

14-15 – Home run flare-up sends Rangers below .500

The Texas Rangers scored two runs but the New York Yankees scored four runs. In the span of four hitters between the third and fourth innings, the Yankees hit three home runs off an otherwise cruising Jack Leiter, two of them with two outs in the third and one to lead off the fourth. Suddenly […]
