The Yankees’ five worst defensive plays of 2026
Over the last few years — ever since the 2024 World Series, to be honest — the Yankees have had a reputation for defensive sloppiness. In truth, that is a tad overstated: as mentioned earlier this week, when we previewed the Yankees’ defensive highlights from the 2026 season, the team has finished in the middle […]
The Yankees’ 10 highest exit velocities of the 2026 season
Taking a look back at some highlights and Statcast numbers from the 2026 season, it’s clear the Yankees know how to crush the ball hard. It doesn’t come as a shock that Big G dominates this list of the highest exit velocities, as he’s historically one of the most dominant power hitters in franchise history, […]
MLB Playoff Roundup: Dodgers’ three-peat dreams dead, Brewers sweep NLCS
The League Championship Series round rolled on Thursday with a slightly modified schedule. MLB had to preemptively move the third game of the ALCS up from a 6 p.m. ET start time to 1 p.m. ET due to ominous weather in Northeast Ohio and that slightly tweaked the start time of the NLCS as well […]
Today on Pinstripe Alley – 10/16/26
The 1990s Yankees can rest a little easier after last night, as the two-time defending champion Dodgers were officially eliminated by the Milwaukee Brewers in a convincing sweep. It was a complete reversal of last year’s NLCS, as the Brew Crew exacted revenge for getting swept back then while making history in the process. Now […]
Yankees news: No qualifying offer for Jazz Chisholm Jr.?
MLB Trade Rumors | Anthony Franco: The Yankees have a pair of qualifying offer decisions to make with Jazz Chisholm Jr. and David Bednar hitting free agency (Paul Blackburn also becomes a free agent but is not a realistic candidate for the QO). According to Jon Heyman, the Yankees are expected to issue the QO […]
What’s the Yankees’ next move with Giancarlo Stanton?
After a disappointing postseason that left more to be desired from the Yankees’ heavy hitters, it’s unclear what the future may look like for veterans like Giancarlo Stanton. The nearly 37-year-old designated hitter was injured for the majority of the regular season, suffering a calf injury in late April and another in August from running […]
Teruaki Sato would make a great fit in the Bronx
The Yankees have a lot of uncertainty at multiple positions heading into the offseason, but there’s one potential newcomer to the league who could solve third base. MLB insider Jon Heyman reported before the final stretch of the regular season that Teruaki Sato could be a good fit with several MLB clubs, including the Yankees. […]
Yankees Birthday of the Day: Samuel Byrd
Before he had a chance to grow up and become affectionately known as “Babe Ruth’s Legs,” Samuel Byrd was known to his family as Dewey. While growing up in Birmingham, Alabama, Byrd excelled at basketball and baseball for Simpson High School. During his high school days, Byrd also found another sport to love, as he […]
Former Yankees manager Joe Girardi defends Aaron Boone’s season
Although several fans may have a contrasting opinion, former Yankees skipper Joe Girardi gave Aaron Boone praise for his managerial duties throughout the season. Another season came and went without the Yankees securing their 28th World Series title, and the majority of fans are just about fed up. It’s gotten to the point where they’re […]
MLB Playoff Roundup: Bauers leads Brewers’ blasts on brink of World Series
Is this finally the year the Brewers exorcise their playoff demons and advance past the Dodgers on the Senior Circuit side of the bracket? Alongside LA, Milwaukee has been the class of the NL regular season for the last decade. However, they have never beaten their postseason final boss during this era, getting eliminated by […]
NLCS Game 4 thread: Los Angeles Dodgers vs. Milwaukee Brewers
Holy moly, that was some kind of playoff game last night in LA. A first-pitch homer by Jackson Chourio was the only scoring until an Abner Uribe meltdown allowed the Dodgers to jump back in front, 2-1. But Jake Bauers—yes, the same 2023 Yankees legend—put in his second epic at-bat of the offseason to win […]
Yankees news: Gold Glove finalists and Chambliss’ 50th anniversary
MLB.com: The three AL Gold Glove finalists at each position were announced Wednesday, with three Yankees earning nods. Cody Bellinger, who led all left fielders with 21 DRS despite missing time to injury, is in play for his first Gold Glove since 2019, when he won one for his work in right with the Dodgers, […]
MLB Trade Rumors releases annual arbitration projections for 2027
Now that we are into the offseason, it’s time to focus on who the Yankees will need to keep in the Bronx and how much they’re willing to spend. Taking a look at MLB Trade Rumors’ arbitration projections for 2027, there are a few standouts that could use a pay raise, while others may be […]
Three Yankees named as Gold Glove finalists
Austin Wells, Cody Bellinger, and José Caballero are the three Yankees who were named Rawlings Gold Glove finalists on Wednesday. Among the American League finalists, Wells was named alongside Tigers catcher Dillon Dingler and the Blue Jays’ Brandon Valenzuela. The Yankees catcher had his ups and downs offensively this season, but he made up for […]
The Yankees’ five best defensive plays of 2026
The Yankees defense has been, over the past few years, inconsistent at best. The 2024 squad, on paper, wasn’t too bad, ending the year in the middle of the pack in Defensive Runs Saved (31, good for 12th in baseball) and Outs Above Average (10, good for 10th), but defensive miscues rather infamously proved their […]
The Yankees are out, but Mike Pinsky is still surviving
Recently, a young man from Chicago’s South Side went viral for his feelings about what happens if, or when, his White Sox lose. The sixth grader spoke straight from my soul when he said he would have “no heart for baseball” if the Sox lose. This has long been my relationship with baseball and the […]
Yankees Birthday of the Day: Joe Girardi
As things stand right now, Joe Girardi is the answer to a trivia question that haunts millions of Yankees fans… “who is the manager of the last World Series-winning Yankees team?” I doubt any of us old enough to remember the ’09 team could have imagined this eventuality in our wildest nightmares. For Girardi’s part, […]
2026 Yankees Team MVP: Cam Schlittler
We close a bit of a circle with this post, as I was fortunate to write Cam Schlittler’s season preview post all the way back in March. This was how good(ish) FanGraphs thought he would be: Of course Cam ended the year with a 1.95 ERA, 2.56 FIP, 31 percent strikeout rate, 6.4 percent walk […]
MLB Playoff Roundup: Rays strike back, even ALCS at 1
The American League was the only game in town on Tuesday after the Brewers raced ahead to a 2-0 start in the NLCS, the Guardians and Rays playing out Game 2 of their series with all the spotlights on them. The result was an even split of the first two games in Tampa, the series […]
Today on Pinstripe Alley – 10/14/26
We’re through two games in both the ALCS and NLCS, and the games have all been pretty riveting, if you’ve had the stomach to watch them with the Yankees long since eliminated. The Rays capitalized on some uncharacteristic sloppy play from Jose Ramirez to tie the ALCS at a game apiece last night, while the […]
Yankees news: Previewing the free agent class
The Athletic | Chris Kirschner ($): The Yankees have ten men that will be free agents after the World Series, including one of the starting infielders and the established closer. They also face a winter of deep labor uncertainty, potential changes to compensation as underlined by a new CBA, and a possibility of lower revenue […]
The Yankees Birthday Series, presented by Pinstripe Alley
During my tenure at Pinstripe Alley—hell, during my entire time as a baseball fan—I’ve never been shy about delving into the team’s history and exploring the lives of its long roll call of players, both incredible and regrettable. We provide plenty of other coverage on the current-day activities of the teams, so I like having […]
Yankees Birthday of the Day: Charlie Silvera
As far as non-stressful jobs in sports go, backup catcher to an established star would be a pretty good one to have. For nine years in New York, Charlie Silvera got to fill that role, and not just behind any old star — he was the backup to Yankees icon Yogi Berra. For his career […]
The five best moments of the 2026 Yankees’ season
The wounds of a devastating sweep at the hands of the Tampa Bay Rays are still fresh for the Yankees, as they come to terms with another disappointing end to a season this week. As we begin what’s likely going to be a long and dreadfully boring offseason with the impending lockout, it’s time to […]
MLB Playoff Roundup: Brewers go up 2-0, Guardians strike first
While it still hurts that the Yankees aren’t out there playing, you better soak the rest of the playoffs in. We only have, at most, three more days with more than one game, and we’re only guaranteed one more. Before you know it, we have only the World Series and then the long, cold winter […]
