Yankees sign former Astros starter Luis Garcia to a minor-league deal

“If you can’t beat them, join them.“ Or, in this case, have them join you. In a move that is not quite as dramatic as someone like Roger Clemens eventually making his way from Boston stardom to the Bronx, the Yankees recently signed right-handed pitcher Luis Garcia to a minor-league deal. And if you were […]

Yankees Birthday of the Day: Miller Huggins

What comes to mind when you hear Miller Huggins’ name? The 1920s Yankees, surely. He is remembered primarily as the man who managed that legendary core of Babe Ruth, Lou Gehrig, Tony Lazzeri, Herb Pennock and company, capturing six AL pennants and three World Series titles during his twelve-year tenure.  Some might point to the […]

3/27 Gamethread: Giants vs. Yankees

Yankees Rivalry Roundup: Crochet starts 2026 with a gem

While the Yankees got their 2026 season going on Wednesday night, the rest of MLB had to wait a little while. Thursday saw the season get going for most of the rest of the league, with 11 games happening on an action-packed day. With those teams all getting in action yesterday, that means it’s time […]

Yankees’ Carlos Lagrange is amazing, but isn’t a finished product yet

Carlos Lagrange is a fascinating prospect. The 22-year-old, owner of a slightly deceiving 4.96 Grapefruit League ERA, was amazing all spring despite that late stinker in which he allowed eight runs in 2.2 innings earlier this week. And we’re not just talking about his performance in games. Evidently, he put in the work in the […]

Today on Pinstripe Alley – 3/27/26

The Yankees got to take their first off-day of the year easy after demolishing the Giants on Opening Day, watching as the rest of the league got to take a shot at getting in the win column. In the AL East, everyone but Toronto jumped into action with the O’s and Sox winning to form […]

The Yankees Rotation Depth Inventory: March

Whether due to injury, poor performance, or the quirks of a 162-game schedule, a team generally needs far more than five starters to make it through a season (11 different pitchers started games for the 2025 Yankees). Each month during the season, we take stock of the Yankees’ options to join the starting rotation through […]

Yankees’ Max Fried dominates without his best stuff and command

New York Yankees ace Max Fried posted a 4.40 ERA in the Grapefruit League, with four walks and 12 strikeouts in 14.1 innings. That’s exactly why you shouldn’t fully trust spring training stats: no one in his or her right state of mind had any reason to doubt the stellar southpaw heading into the season. […]

Yankees Birthday of the Day: José Vizcaíno

Joe Torre managed the Yankees for 12 seasons, clinching six pennants and bringing four championships to the Bronx. Through his success and steady hand, the former league MVP made himself into something of a modern legend as a skipper. In addition to his people skills, Torre was hailed for an ability to seemingly push the […]

What is your Opening Day overreaction?

The 2026 season has begun, and the Yankees started their year off with a big 7-0 win over the Giants in San Francisco. The game was in their hands nearly the entire way, with a first inning jam being the only threat to Max Fried’s day before the offense jumped Logan Webb for five runs […]

The Athletic | Andrew Marchand: As MLB, and sports leagues around the country, tries to keep juicing television revenues, it becomes harder and harder for fans to keep track of where their favorite team’s games will be shown. The Yankees’ opener on Netflix last night was symbolic of the fractured nature of the TV landscape, […]

Yankees punish Logan Webb in Opening Day romp over Giants

Opening Day is in the books and it couldn’t have gone much better for the Yankees. It was a bit of a throwback game as the Yankees scored seven runs without the ball leaving the yard, the hitters aggressive early in counts to collect ten base hits. Any time you can score seven runs when […]
