Wednesday can comfortably be filed away in the “bad” drawer for the Yankees. They mustered just a single hit in a shutout loss to the Orioles, a game in which Max Fried departed early with ever-troubling elbow soreness. The loss keeps them in the hole in the American League East, as they eagerly look to […]
We’re going to try something a little different this time around on Sequence of the Week. Normally, we select a single at-bat or plate appearance from a given game to highlight the sequencing and execution from a Yankees pitcher. However, there were two encounters from the Yankees’ most recent win against the Orioles on Tuesday […]
Triple-A Scranton/Wilkes-Barre RailRiders: W, 7-0 vs. Syracuse Mets SS George Lombard Jr. 0-5, 1 K1B Seth Brown 1-52B Marco Luciano 1-3, 1 2B, 1 R, 1 BB3B Oswaldo Cabrera 2-4, 1 RBI, 1 R, 1 KDH Ernesto Martinez Jr. 1-4, 1 R, 1 KC Ali Sánchez 1-4, 1 RLF Jonathan Ornelas 2-3, 1 2B, 2 […]
The last week hasn’t been too kind to the Yankees, as they’ve dropped five of their last six games and seen their offense disappear for most of that stretch. While there’s concerns to be had about the lineup struggling to get going again leading to one of their only losing streaks of the year, they […]
SNY | Alex Smith: The Yankees lost for the sixth time in their last eight games on Wednesday, and that’s not even the worst news: left-hander Max Fried had to leave the game after three innings with left elbow posterior soreness. The pitcher himself told Bryan Hoch of MLB.com that it felt like a hyperextension […]
Things stink right now. The Yankee offense has been present for one game out of the last six, and we’re in the dark about the Max Fried’s potential elbow injury. On top of all that, New York lost a game that it felt like they were never involved in in the first place, managing a […]
Max Fried only lasted three innings on Wednesday afternoon in Baltimore, indeed seeming to take himself out of the game after the third frame. Down 3-0, the lefty immediately went down the tunnel followed by members of the training staff, and pitching coach Matt Blake tapped Paul Blackburn to come in for longman’s work. Fried […]
After that skid in Milwaukee, the Yankees have the chance to get right back on the horse today with a series win over Baltimore. First pitch time has been moved up from 6:35pm to 1:05pm this afternoon with fears of some nasty weather tonight, but we’re all hoping for some nasty pitching from Max Fried […]
John Ryan Murphy: a name that lives rent-free in my brain. Why? No one knows, other than the fact it sounds more like a nursery rhyme than the name of a former big-league catcher. Murphy was once on the long list of Yankees right-handed catchers. Remember those days when Francisco Cervelli was the primary catcher, […]
The Yankees broke their losing streak on Tuesday, besting Baltimore 6-2 thanks to a five-run third inning. Trent Grisham punctuated the rally with a three-run blast off of Trevor Rogers, who has looked nowhere close to the dominant form he displayed for the O’s in 2025. The rest of the league was back in action […]
SB Nation is excited to share a new job posting for Pinstripe Alley: Team Site Producer. This is a new position that will oversee Pinstripe Alley, shaping our daily coverage of the Yankees, growing the audience here – that’s you, reading this – and helping our team of writers to continue delivering smart Yankees coverage. […]
We have reached the midway point of the first half of the International League schedule and the Scranton/Wilkes-Barre RailRiders are in the thick of the race for first place. They entered the week in fifth place with a 20-17 record, four games behind the leading Memphis Redbirds (25-14). The Gwinnett Stripers are second at 24-15, […]
Triple-A Scranton/Wilkes-Barre RailRiders: L, 4-7 (13) vs. Syracuse Mets SS George Lombard Jr. 0-2, 4 BB, K, fielding error — almost the rare extra-inning/no-contact day; also had first error at Triple-A, which sparked Syracuse’s ninth-inning rally to go from trailing 4-2 to a 4-4 tie1B-LF Seth Brown 1-5, HR, BB, RBI, 2 K2B Marco Luciano 1-5, […]
Hey folks, it was a quick turnaround last night on a weeknight and I was at the game, so we’re going to just do a classic “Today on Pinstripe Alley” post today rather than doing a full question exercise. Thanks for understanding! We’ll still have two rapid-fire questions for folks to talk about if they […]
CBS Sports | Mike Axisa: The Yankees recalled Anthony Volpe on Tuesday, giving their erstwhile starting shortstop another opportunity to carve out a role in the big leagues. After struggling on both sides of the ball last year, Volpe underwent shoulder surgery this offseason and began the year on the IL. Once his rehab stint […]
The 2026 Yankees have been masters of the crooked number. The fun comes in bunches this year, and that theme continued in Baltimore on Tuesday night as the Yankees plated five in the third inning en route to a 6-2 series-evening win. Paul Goldschmidt hit a leadoff homer on the game’s first pitch, and Trent […]
I think I speak for everyone here when I hope the 2026 iteration of the Yankees does not prove to be as starkly bipolar as it has been throughout the season’s first month and a half. New York has dropped four consecutive games following a torrid stretch when they briefly had the best record in […]
Man proposes, and the baseball god disposes. While the Yankees seemed content to let former top prospect Anthony Volpe re-discover himself with Triple-A Scranton, an injury to incumbent shortstop José Caballero means that Volpe is heading back to the major-league roster. Cabby was sent back to New York for secondary screening on a finger on […]
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 […]
The Yankees offense is in a bit of a rut, losing their last four games by scoring three or fewer runs in each. It coincides with a period in which several of their hitters — Ben Rice, Giancarlo Stanton, Jasson Domínguez, and José Caballero — have dealt with or are dealing with minor injuries, but […]
The best stories in sports, no matter what era they come from, exist because of those who battle against the odds. Michael Jordan’s “Flu Game” is so excellent because he fought illness to play in a massive playoff game and lead the Chicago Bulls to victory with 38 points. And while it’s not a flu […]
Just when the Yankees looked like they were beginning to really roll with six consecutive series wins and 15 victories in a span of 17 games, they’ve hit a very annoying wall. They were swept in Milwaukee and the losing streak is now at four in a row after the bullpen blew its third consecutive […]
Another week on the farm is in the books, and there’s big stories at every level. In Scranton, a talented roster tries to steady the ship after being depleted due to big league call-ups. A powerful lineup continues to mash in Somerset, while Hudson Valley’s pitching staff continues to round into form. Down at the […]
Triple-A Scranton/Wilkes-Barre RailRiders: Offday Double-A Somerset Patriots: Offday High-A Hudson Valley Renegades: Offday Low-A Tampa Tarpons: Offday Florida Complex League Yankees: W, 8-1 vs. FCL Tigers 3B Richard Matic 2-3, 2 R, 1 BBRF Wilberson De Pena 0-4, 2 KC Queni Pineda 0-3, 1 R, 1 BB, 2 K2B Leni Done 2-3, 1 HR, 4 RBI, 2 R, 1 […]
The Yankees lost again on Monday, but that was through no fault of starting pitcher Ryan Weathers who had a no-hitter going into the seventh inning before a leadoff single began the rally that ultimately put them behind for good. Weathers was removed with no chance at being charged with the loss, having surrendered that […]
