New York Yankees vs. Boston Red Sox: Ryan Weathers vs. Sonny Gray
On Wednesday, the Yankees were dealt a blow when it was announced that Aaron Judge is going to miss 4-6 weeks after suffering a stress fracture in his ribs. While Judge had struggled somewhat before the diagnosis of his injury, which was part of the issue, the Yankees’ lineup was already sputtering a bit. Now, […]
Yankees Mailbag: Trade chips and surprise contenders
Good afternoon everyone, it’s time to dive back into the mailbag and answer some of your questions. Remember to send in your questions for our weekly call by e-mail to pinstripealleyblog [at] gmail [dot] com. The idiot that said, “Harper is coming” asks: Rather than focus on trade acquisition candidates, let’s focus on who might get […]
Finding parallels between baseball and the World Cup
The World Cup is right around the corner, and while baseball teams carry on their business, 48 nations will be traveling about the North American continent, fighting for the ultimate prize in what’s widely regarded as the biggest sporting event in the world. With less than a week to go before the start of this […]
Yankees Birthday of the Day: Jack Chesbro
To many fans, Babe Ruth and Lou Gehrig represent the “beginning” of Yankees history, the first true stars whose performance at the plate kickstarted the first ever Yankees dynasty in the 1920s. But the Yankees did not emerge ex nihil when Ruth joined the team in 1920. Seventeen years prior, a new squad, named the […]
Yankees bring Spencer Jones back up to replace Aaron Judge
In light of Aaron Judge’s stress fracture in his right rib, the Yankees will be without their captain and three-time AL MVP for at least four-to-six weeks. It will probably be longer than that. So, with Giancarlo Stanton and Jasson Domínguez still not ready to return from their respective injuries, the organization decided to call […]
Yankees Rivalry Roundup: Ninth inning eruption seals Blue Jays victory over Braves
The Yankees managed to salvage a win and avoid a sweep by the Guardians at Yankee Stadium on the back of strong solid pitching from Carlos Rodón, shutdown bullpen work, and some clutch hitting by Ryan McMahon. With the win, the Yankees climb to within a half-game of the Rays, who had the day off. […]
New York Yankees vs. Boston Red Sox: Series Preview
After a week out west, the Yankees returned home on Tuesday for a series against the Guardians that could’ve gone better. The Yankees dropped the opening two games of the series, before eking out a 2-1 win in the finale. Looming over the proceedings is the fact that Aaron Judge is about to hit the […]

Today on Pinstripe Alley – 6/5/26
It has not been the best week in Yankee Universe, the Bombers offense looking a little sluggish in a three-game set with the Guardians while the team held its breath as Aaron Judge underwent an endless series of tests and imaging. We’ve at last gotten an answer on Judge, and it’s not a good one: […]
Yankees news: Aaron Judge out with rib stress fracture
Associated Press | Larry Fleisher: The Yankees maintained hope throughout the week that Aaron Judge’s rib injury wouldn’t be too serious, with the captain undergoing a long series of tests and imaging. That hope was dashed last night, as the team announced that Judge has been diagnosed with a stress fracture in his right rib […]
Aaron Judge diagnosed with stress fracture, to miss at least four to six weeks
The Yankees announced tonight that Aaron Judge has been diagnosed with a stress fracture in his right rib. Judge will be re-evaluated in four to six weeks after a period of rest and limited activity. It’s a crushing piece of news, though one that at least avoids the worst-case scenario. After days of testing, fears […]
Ryan McMahon comes through as Yankees salvage series finale
It’s very hard to go from relying on the consistent presence of a three-time MVP in your lineup every day to going cold turkey without him, but with Aaron Judge sidelined for the time being with some sort of rib issue, the Yankees’ offense has had to make do without him. They didn’t get the […]
New York Yankees vs. Cleveland Guardians: Carlos Rodón vs. Slade Cecconi
On paper, the Yankees had a real pitching advantage in this series, tossing Cam Schlittler and Gerrit Cole in the first two games of the series before drawing one of Cleveland’s worst performing starters on Thursday. But the thing about paper is that… It’s paper. The Guardians have put together two impressive offensive performances against […]
Yankees At-Bat of the Week: Paul Goldschmidt (5/29)
The Yankees recently returned home from a successful roadtrip during which they swept the Royals and took two out of three from the A’s. The offense awoke from its mid-May slumber, putting up 51 runs across the six games. One of the unlikely contributors at the heart of that scoring outburst was Paul Goldschmidt. Initially […]
A closer look at Ryan McMahon’s May
Ryan McMahon’s stat line still does not look impressive. Entering June, the Yankees infielder is still hitting just .207 on the season. However, if you dive a little deeper, McMahon appears to be adjusting his approach and has found more, albeit still limited, success doing so. The most obvious evidence of improvement shows up in […]
Yankees Birthday of the Day: Phil Linz
The game of baseball requires many player archetypes to compete for positions on major league (and professional) rosters. Sluggers, contact hitters, and defensive wizards all have their place within the game. But there’s another group of players (albeit a smaller genre) who are still around and have made their way onto World Series-winning rosters: the […]
Yankees Rivalry Roundup: Rays fall again to the Tigers
The Yankees took a disappointing loss on Wednesday, with Gerrit Cole allowing a trio of homers to the Guardians in the 5-4 defeat in the Bronx. Although the Bombers had their moments on offense, including bringing the deficit to one in the ninth, it was not enough to match Cleveland. Despite the loss, there was […]
The Yankees’ top defensive plays of May
The month of May has only added more intrigue when it comes to the Yankees. With two full pages of the calendar behind us, the Bombers are still fighting to reclaim first place, with the Rays playing some good baseball to wrap up the spring. Regardless of any team success or struggle, another month in […]

Today on Pinstripe Alley – 6/4/26
Apologies for the old school Today on PSA, but the editing night ran into morning rather quick this time around. The Yankees gave us a classic “just out of reach the whole time” type of game, giving up a run and then clawing it back just to give up another and stay barely behind. The […]
Yankees news: All-Star Game ballot released
MLB.com | Jason Foster: We’re six weeks out from the 2026 All-Star Game, taking place at Citizens Bank Park in Philadelphia. The official voting opened yesterday, and the Yankees feature a trio of strong candidates to start in Aaron Judge (if he’s healthy), Ben Rice, and Cody Bellinger. A desperately weak second base field may […]
Guardians homer thrice off Cole, hold off Bombers to take series
Tonight, the Yankees were a cat that couldn’t catch the mouse. To be fair, the mouse in question was capable of dealing mighty blows to the cat. The Guardians grabbed their well-earned series win in the Bronx by flexing their muscles, clubbing three home runs off Gerrit Cole and always finding the timely hit to […]
New York Yankees vs. Cleveland Guardians: Gerrit Cole vs. Gavin Williams
Tonight, the Yankees will decidedly be a second-tier act in The City That Never Sleeps. The Knicks, perhaps New York’s greatest unifying force, will be playing in the NBA Finals for the first time in 27 years. That sort of occasion tends to take the starch out of all the other concurrent sporting events, but […]
Command remains a work in progress for Carlos Lagrange
The Yankees’ bullpen, contrary to popular belief, hasn’t been a weakness so far. Well, statistically at least. The unit ranks tenth in MLB with a 3.59 ERA before Tuesday’s game, which is not bad. Of course, true contenders want to be much closer to the top of the league, and that hasn’t been the case […]
Breaking down George Lombard Jr.’s first month in Triple-A
A large part of the Yankees’ success through the first two months of the 2026 season has been based on their homegrown talent. The way that Ben Rice and Cam Schlittler have taken the next step from good supporting cast players to bona fide stars at their respective positions has greatly improved the team’s future […]
