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 […]
Yankees Birthday of the Day: José Molina
In our current data-driven era of baseball, pitch framing has emerged as the single most impactful facet of catcher defense. Stealing strikes by presenting borderline pitches in the zone is a skill that far outweighs blocking dirtballs or stopping the run game in terms of overall impact. It took a while for front offices to […]
Yankees prospects: Monteros help Tarpons drop a dozen on Cardinals

May days were not kind to RailRiders
May was not a merry month for the Triple-A Scranton/Wilkes-Barre RailRiders. Although they won the final two games of a six-game series last week against the Worcester Red Sox at home at PNC Field, the RailRiders finished May with a 12-15 record. In two series against the WooSox during the month, they went 4-7. They […]
What’s Eating Aaron Judge
We’re going to start this piece with a general disclaimer: Aaron Judge is still an excellent MLB hitter. He is also 261 plate appearances into his worst season since 2021, a “mere” five-and-a-half win campaign that saw him finish fourth for AL MVP. We can also all be honest that that is a significant drop […]
Yankees Rivalry Roundup: Rays blanked by Tigers
After getting Monday off on their way back from the west coast, the Yankees returned to action Tuesday night, opening a series against the Guardians. And, well…it could have gone better. For one, Aaron Judge was out of the lineup, as he apparently is dealing with a bone bruise, which flared up over the weekend […]
How concerned are you about Aaron Judge’s injury?
The Yankees lost an annoying game last night in a series opener in the Bronx against the Guardians, but that’s probably not what’s front-of-mind for most of their fans. For the first time all year, Aaron Judge was absent from the startng lineup, as manager Aaron Boone revealed that he’s been battling a bone bruise […]
Yankees news: Judge out with rib bruise, Schlittler off on velo
The Athletic | Brendan Kuty ($): The headline around Tuesday making shockwaves around the team was Aaron Judge’s health, as manager Aaron Boone left him out of the lineup and then told reporters that Judge was diagnosed with a bone bruise in his ribs. Judge initially felt the injury affecting his shoulder during his swing, […]
Yankees can’t recover from Cam Schlittler’s bad start, lose to Guardians
This was a long, ugly game that kind of confirmed all our priors about the 2026 Yankees. The starting rotation is dynamite but if a guy has an offday, the offense isn’t really deep enough to pick him up, they rely a little too much on one guy. The bullpen shows signs of something special […]
New York Yankees vs. Cleveland Guardians: Cam Schlittler vs. Joey Cantillo
You still have to play the game, of course, but when you have a pitcher having as fine a season as Cam Schlittler is, you expect to win all of his start. The American League’s best pitcher will look to keep the Yankees on this nice little roll they’re on, with the potential to push […]
Aaron Judge reportedly has bone bruise on upper right rib
Well, that explains a lot about the stuff that needed explaining. Aaron Judge was sitting out tonight’s game against Cleveland for the first time all year, and manager Aaron Boone let us know why: a bone bruise. I share Boonie’s hope that this is a day to day concern, though it does raise more questions. […]

Yankees to shift top prospect Carlos Lagrange to Triple-A bullpen
According to the YES Network’s Jack Curry, the Yankees are shifting flame-throwing pitching prospect Carlos Lagrange to the bullpen. The 23-year-old had made 11 starts for Triple-A Scranton/Wilkes-Barre this season, but will now begin to adjust to pitching in relief. It’s a clear signal from the Yankees, who will see if Lagrange can help improve […]

Yankees prospects: Week 10 minor league recap
It wasn’t a great week to be a pitcher in the Yankees’ organization. Several highly touted pitching prospects scuffled across all levels in some of their worst outings of the season, but they were picked up by some strong hitting performances up and down the system. Dax Kilby made his season debut, George Lombard Jr. […]
Yankees Birthday of the Day: Gene Michael
One of the more challenging problems in professional sports is that of determining who will make a proper coach or manager. Some of those who are the greatest to play the game aren’t good coaches, and some who are below average just so turn out to be constructors or leaders of the best teams to […]
Yankees Rivalry Roundup: Tigers outlast Rays in wild game
The Yankees were on the couch on Monday, alongside most of the league, but there were still a couple of notable teams on the docket for them to scoreboard watch. Their biggest challenger for the AL East in the Rays were one of those two, and boy did they get into a barn burner of […]
New York Yankees vs. Cleveland Guardians: Series Preview
In the vast majority of preseason predictions, the Tigers were the trendy pick to win a weak AL Central. No one paid much attention to the Guardians, but you think we would learn by now not to underestimate the plucky Cleveland outfit following year after year of outperforming their projections to end up atop the […]

Will the Yankees’ bullpen problem solve itself?
Ask any fan, analyst, or evaluator about the Yankees’ weaknesses, and they’re almost certain to start in one place: the bullpen. The team’s disinterest in making moves to upgrade the unit over the winter, which struggled for much of 2025, drew ire as part of the club’s “Run it Back” strategy. If the bullpen wasn’t […]
Yankees news: Scoring 13 runs in an inning is a good strategy
MLB.com | Theo DeRosa: There are many ways to win a baseball game. Scoring 13 runs in an inning is certainly one of them; I’m surprised the Yankees don’t try it more often. Jokes aside, their 3rd-inning outburst against the A’s on Sunday was one for the ages, and I mean literally – the last […]
