To kick off the week, the Yankees will head back to the East Coast for a three-game set with the Orioles. For the most part, the American League in 2026 can reasonably be described as “unimpressive,” a description the Yankees are mostly exempt from, but describes Baltimore’s season fairly well. At 18-23, they are already […]
I’d prefer to not talk about the entire weekend as it pertains to baseball. The Yankees got utterly spanked in Milwaukee, suffering their second sweep of the season. For that reason alone there was very little to cheer about the past few days. But to make it worse, the godforsaken Tampa Bay Rays continued their […]
May 12th marks an anniversary that Oswaldo Cabrera isn’t necessarily celebrating. It was on that day last year that the Yankees infielder suffered a gruesome injury during a play at home plate in Seattle against the Mariners. In the ninth inning of a Yankees 11-5 win, Cabrera was on third base when he tagged up […]
The Orioles will look to pick up their first win over the Yankees tonight. Baltimore found itself on the wrong end of a four-game sweep at the beginning of May. Taylor Ward will leadoff and play left field. Adley Rutschman will handle the catching duties, but Samuel Basallo will still start as the DH against […]

The rise of Cam Schlittler has not just been one of the most thrilling Yankees stories to watch over the last year, but one of the best stories in all of baseball. Once a mid-rotation starter with modest fastball velocity in college, Schlittler has transformed into a monster, a fire-breathing dragon of a pitcher that […]
Box Score Twenty years ago, Bill Hall (one of the author’s all-time favorite players), wearing No. 2, hit a walk-off home run with a pink bat on Mother’s Day. Today, Brice Turang, also No. 2, used a pink bat to add another chapter to Milwaukee Mother’s Day lore when he walked off the Yankees with […]
Most days during our Yankees Birthday series have been highlight a player who was born on that particular day. While the players are the ones we watch on a day in and day out basis, it takes more than them to make a baseball team go, and today we’ll look back on someone who had […]
The Milwaukee Brewers are looking to parlay their win in the series opener against the New York Yankees into a series win on Saturday night. They were able to shut out the Yankees potent lineup on Friday night, the first shutout the Brewers have had against the Yankees since 1992. On the mound trying to […]
There were a lot of similarities between today and yesterday’s loss, but at least this one was quicker. The Yankees couldn’t get the one extra hit they really needed, and the Brewers showed why they’ve been so formidable over the past couple years. In the end, breakout star Brice Turang clubbed David Bednar’s offering over […]
For the second day in a row, the Yankees played a somewhat frustrating game in Milwaukee. They did better offensively on Saturday, but the three runs didn’t end up being enough, as the Brewers rallied twice before walking it off in the 10th inning. With the Yankees facing a speed bump after a hot run […]
Happy Mother’s Day to all the moms out there! The Brewers, of course, have some history on this holiday, and they’ll look to keep that rolling today. By winning on Friday and Saturday, the Brewers have already clinched a big series victory against the New York Yankees. But they might as well get greedy, right? […]
The Yankees dropped their first series in a while, losing the first two games in Milwaukee after getting shutout in the first one and getting walked off in the second. New York was in control late, though they’d wasted chances to grow their lead outside of a couple of Paul Goldschmidt RBI hits. The bullpen […]
MLB.com | Mark Bowman: Just days after long-time Yankees radio broadcaster John Sterling passed away at the age of 87, the baseball world lost another legend with the passing of Hall of Fame manager Bobby Cox. Cox was the long-time manager of the Braves across two separate stints, leading the franchise to 14 straight division […]
The Yankees opened their series with the Brewers on a low-note, getting shutout by Jacob Misiorowski for six innings while Max Fried dropped his worst start of the season on the other side. Unfortunately, Spencer Jones’ MLB debut was overshadowed by the team at large struggling on Friday, collecting just three hits on the night. […]

The road back from injury has reached its final stop for Carlos Rodón, who was activated this morning by the Yankees on the day of his season debut against the Milwaukee Brewers, adding talent to an already stacked rotation. To make room for Rodón’s addition to the MLB roster, the Yankees will send down right-hander […]
Good morning, LSB. The Rangers lost to the Yankees yesterday, 9-2. Evan Grant writes about the slim margin of error the Rangers have to work with in order to get a win these days. Kennedi Landry touches on MacKenzie Gore, who was in control through five innings before the wheels shot off. Joc Pederson started […]
Upon trading for superstar Alex Rodriguez in February 2004 and moving him to third base, the Yankees could rest easy knowing that they had secured a real long-term answer for the hot corner. For the better part of nine years, the Yankees planned their seasons with A-Rod penciled in at third, but by 2014, they […]
Box Score It was a matchup of two young pitchers who have been dominating to start 2026: Cam Schlittler and Kyle Harrison. Offense would be at a premium; that was certain. The Brewers nearly were able to knock Schlittler out of the game in the first inning, after William Contreras ripped a 108.5-mph comebacker off […]
On Friday night in Milwaukee, the Yankees were shut down by Brewers’ phenom pitcher Jacob Misiorowski to spectacular effect. On Saturday, it was the Yankees’ turn to throw their young star, and he was quite good himself. Cam Schlittler ended up going six innings, for the Yankees, allowing no runs on just two hits. He […]
Box Score Jacob Misiorowski celebrated CC Sabathia being inducted into the Brewers’ Wall of Fame in the most ceremonious fashion possible, by striking out 11 Yankees and not allowing a single run, as he led the Brewers to a 6-0 series-opening victory Friday night. Kicking the festivities off in the top of the first inning, […]
Art López could always hit. Despite an injured throwing arm that limited his effectiveness in the outfield, a diminutive stature, and little fanfare, he played until the age of 36, winning championships in six different countries. A hit tool can carry a ballplayer quite a long way, and despite his brief MLB career, the man […]
MLB.com | Casey Drottar: Although the Yankees suffered a second straight walk-off loss and a series sweep on Sunday, at least one Yankee enjoyed a nice moment. After going hitless with four strikeouts in his first two games, Spencer Jones got his first major league hit in the second inning against Logan Henderson, a 106.4 […]
