New York Yankees vs. Los Angeles Angels: Luis Gil vs. Jack Kochanowicz

A pitching staff off to a marvelous start in 2026, the Yankees have had more than their fair share of issues against the Angels in this four-game set at home. It’ll be up to Luis Gil to right the ship. The right-hander missed out on a spot in the Opening Day rotation as the Yanks […]

Yankees promote reliever Angel Chivilli from Triple-A

The Yankees’ bullpen started the year on fire, protecting leads left and right and enjoying a few breakout performances from unexpected pitchers — or at least that’s what it looked like. Now, a few weeks into the season, the unit has looked leaky and inconsistent in recent games. This has caused the Yanks to make […]

Yankees Birthday of the Day: King Cole

Long before the Yankees became the Yankees of Ruth, Gehrig, October mythology, and even Gerrit, Leonard Leslie “King” Cole (not to be confused with Nat) was one of the franchise’s most intriguing early arms. For a season, he looked like the kind of pitcher who could help stabilize a club still searching for its identity. […]

Yankees At-Bat of the Week: Trent Grisham (4/13)

Monday night’s game against the Angels had a chance to be the most demoralizing loss of the Yankees’ season, even amid a five-game losing streak that included getting one-hit by the A’s and a 17-inning stretch where they failed to score. The offense had rightly come under fire for failing to uphold their end of […]

What to make of Will Warren

Recency bias can be a heck of a thing, and a concept that may not serve Yankees righty Will Warren all that well. In his most recent outing on Monday against a forgettable Angels lineup, Warren failed to escape the fourth inning, and although they were all unearned, Los Angeles plated four runs under his […]

How would you rank the Yankees’ rotation arms so far?

The Yankees have made four turns through their main quartet of starting pitchers that were rostered for Opening Day now, with Luis Gil set to make his second start in the full rotation later tonight. The arms have done a good job dealing through the first month or so of the season, with little hiccups […]

Yankees news: The AL East is all squared up

FanGraphs | Dan Szymborski: An 8-2 start had the Yankees in the driver’s seat early in the AL East, but a 1-5 run after that has helped settle down the division odds. Now, while the Yanks still boast the best odds of any team in the East to make the playoffs, they’re smack dab in […]

Angels jump on Yankees in first inning, win 7-1

Monday night was a kind of heavyweight prize fight, with each team trading blow after blow after big home run. Tonight was much more like a heavyweight prize fighter fighting me, with the Angels playing the former role and battering the Yankees all over their home ballpark. LA took off almost immediately, hitting the same […]

New York Yankees vs. Los Angeles Angels: Ryan Weathers vs. Reid Detmers

Last night was one of the more entertaining baseball games you’ll ever see, but I’d just as soon take a clean little 5-1 win in game two of this four-game set with the Angels. While the Yankees are looking to continue the momentum from yesterday, Ryan Weathers is looking to continue a little personal momentum, […]

Yankees call up reliever Yerry De los Santos to take Jake Bird’s bullpen spot

The pitching wasn’t pretty, but the Yankees survived an 11-10 slugfest with the Los Angeles Angels on Monday night in the opener of their four-game set. They did, however, decide that they needed relief reinforcements before they played another game. Immediately after the marathon on Monday, the Yanks demoted right-handed pitcher Jake Bird to Triple-A […]

The strangeness of Opening Day in 1910

On April 14, 1910, William Howard Taft, the 27th President of the United States, made history, as he became the first US President to throw out the ceremonial first pitch. While attending Opening Day alongside his wife, Nellie, and Vice President James S. Sherman, the President threw the ball from the stands to Washington Senators […]

Yankees Birthday of the Day: David Justice

The 2000 New York Yankees were not a team of destiny like in 1998, or the well-oiled machine that dropped but a single playoff game en route to a title in 1999. They were a squad that needed help. Jockeying for position with the Red Sox and Blue Jays in a crowded AL East, the […]

Yankees Rivalry Roundup: Crochet rocked as Twins best Sox

The Yankees nearly lost a prime candidate for dumbest game of the year on Monday, but they managed to flip the script and end up on the winning end thanks to a game-tying Trent Grisham two-run shot in the ninth (his second bomb of the night) and a wild pitch that brought José Caballero home […]

Yankees prospects: Week 3 minor league recap

It wasn’t the best week on the farm for the Yankees’ four affiliates, but it was the first full week of the season, during which all four affiliates got in six games. Nobody had a winning week, but all four levels had at least one player produce a standout performance, with several showing incredible progress […]

What’s your all-time favorite hectic back-and-forth Yankees game?

Boy, the Yankees didn’t make that one easy, did they? Future Hall of Famers Mike Trout and Aaron Judge seized the spotlight with two game-changing homers apiece, Trent Grisham provided heroics with a game-tying blast in the bottom of the ninth, and the Yankees walked it off on a wild pitch because why the hell […]

Yankees news: Aaron Judge calls out the team

MLB.com | Bryan Hoch: After storming out to such a strong start to the season, the Yankees’ fortunes took an abrupt U-turn in the form of a five-game losing streak including getting swept by the Rays. The bullpen deserves its share of the blame, but the main culprit is a slumping offense. It has gotten […]

Ask Pinstripe Alley: Yankees mailbag questions request

Oh, how different a week can make you feel. The Yankees’ fast start climbing to the top of the league with a 7-1 record has flipped on its head just as quick, as a five-game losing streak has torpedoed them down towards the rest of the pack in a hurry. While the team certainly was […]

Yankees return Rule 5 Draftee Cade Winquest to Cardinals

Completing his strange trek from St. Louis to New York and back, Cade Winquest has been returned to the Cardinals after the Yankees designated him for assignment last week. The Yankees selected Winquest in the Rule 5 Draft last December, but the right-hander ultimately never made an appearance for the team. It was a surprise […]

The Yankees don’t do themselves any favors

This is not solely a piece to bash Jazz Chisholm Jr. I think he’s a very good player, and I am currently watching him relay signs while standing on second base, both to help his own hitters and mess with Rays’ starter Drew Rassmussen. I think he brings an energy to the club that they’ve […]

To get out of this slide, the Yankees’ bats need to get more aggressive

When the Yankees improved to 8-2 on the season with their comeback, series-opening win against the A’s last Tuesday, all was well in the world. There were problems with a shaky bullpen and an unproductive bottom of the order, but the team was winning, and that’s all that matters. But the thing is, over the […]
