We’ve talked a lot around these parts about how Red Sox baseball this September — particularly after the disappointing late-August Yankees series in the Bronx — has been looking a little sleepy. With playoff positioning essentially fixed, the Sox have gone just 7-5 on the month overall, despite playing an entire slate of teams below […]

“Jerry Coleman, who was banging out base hits all over the green sod at Yankee Stadium last spring, helped today to knock out a rail bridge about twenty-five miles south of Sariwon in his first combat mission in Korea as a Marine air captain.” – The New York Times, February 1, 1953.

The New York Mets (69-80) welcome the Baltimore Orioles (72-78) to Citi Field for a three-game series starting this evening. The Mets are coming off a 1-2 Subway Series with the Yankees, which saw two relatively competitive games go the Yankees’ way, and an absolute rout of a dub for the Mets. The Yankees are […]
Poor Baltimore. The only AL East team to lose Sunday and it was in no small part because they were playing a divisional foe. The rest of the division, led of course by Cam Schlittler’s gem for the Yankees, all put notches in the win column. Meanwhile, the rest of the AL continues to gravitate […]

Cam Schlittler coud be first Yankee to accomplish feat in 48 years.
It’s hard to tell exactly how happy one should feel about this recent stretch of Yankees baseball. For the most part, things have been pretty great; Aaron Judge is back, the Yankees’ top four starting pitchers are at last all healhty at once, and most importantly, the club has been playing good ball, a 24-15 […]
NJ.com | Bob Klapisch ($): Gerrit Cole has been stung by the largest home run bug I’ve seen in a while, seven long balls over two starts against the Padres and Mets. The Yankees have lost both of those games, unsurprising when your starter spots his opponent that many runs. The presumptive #3 in a […]

Back in January, MLBTR looked at the Yankees’ bullpen and a list of six internal candidates to round out the middle and low-leverage innings behind top relievers David Bednar and Fernando Cruz. Among the candidates we mentioned were Jake Bird, Cade Winquest, Yerry De los Santos, Elmer Rodriguez, and Chase Hampton. Of that quintet, De los Santos and Rodriguez are the only ones still in the organization. Winquest, originally a Rule 5 pick out of the Cardinals’ system, was returned to St. Louis i...
The New York Yankees are inching closer and closer to clinching a spot in the 2026 MLB postseason, and on Sunday, they ended their three-game weekend series against the New York Mets in excellent fashion — shutting them out 2-0 behind another incredible outing from starting pitcher Cam Schlittler.
