Opinion: Hell is Out of Session

08 Nov 2009 15:06:35 PST

Written by Greg
After the events of the past few days — the Yankees winning their 27th World Series and being feted for it; the Mets doing no such thing — perhaps you wonder, what's the point? I'd love to tell you what it is, but I have no real clue. We're done rooting against the Yankees. We're done rooting again...

Written by Greg Fertel
GF: What are you up to this offseason? Do the Yankees have you doing anything specific or are you just getting some rest? GF: Have the Yankees given you any indication about where you’ll be next season? Where would you like to start the season?

Opinion: Phillies - Yankees Game 5 Notes

02 Nov 2009 20:40:00 PST

Written by DMtShooter Five Tool Tool
gt;Phil Coke entered the game in the seventh, and Chase Utley treated him like just about every other pitcher in this series by crushing a home run to right. In five games, he's got five home runs, and is now tied Reggie Jackson for the most home runs in a World Series. It's just crazy to me that an...

Opinion: Scioscia And Girardi Play A Game Of "Whatever You Can Do, I Can Do Worse"

23 Oct 2009 08:34:05 PDT

Written by Adam Bernacchio
After the Angels had their *Mark Langston moment on a 3-2 count to Jorge Posada, the Yankees had bases loaded and two outs with Mark Teixeira coming to the plate. Did the Yankees not watch Game Three of the ALDS between the Angels and the Boston Red Sox? Series MVP – CC Sabathia

MLB and Postseason Video Review: Don't Do It!

23 Oct 2009 06:57:01 PDT

Written by J. Conrad Guest
Game five of last night’s ALCS game between the Yankees and Angels was fascinating not just because Los Angeles staved off elimination, doing it in comeback fashion late. But now Buck and McCarver are trying to sell me, and Major League Baseball, on the importance of getting the calls righ...

Opinion: Twins Loss Shows There's No Margin For Error For Small-Market Teams

12 Oct 2009 11:00:13 PDT

Written by patrick bohn
To some, this photo shows you all you need to know about the Yankees-Twins playoff series. In same ways, this was the perfect example of how the Yankees and Twins differ. Teixeira and Rodriguez are Yankees for a simple reason: The Yankees could pay them what others could not.

BtB Power Rankings Season Review: AL East

12 Oct 2009 10:15:57 PDT

Written by JinAZ
24. Baltimore Orioles. TQI = 0.439 The power rankings rate the Orioles as the worst team in the American League. There's good agreement across all of our different win "measures," from reality to cW%. Breaking them down is simple too: the Orioles were below average in hitting, pitching, an...

Opinion: With Brett Gardner off the DL, Melky Cabrera Should Head to the Bench

16 Sep 2009 18:45:20 PDT

Written by Greg Fertel
On September 7, Brett Gardner was activated from the disabled list, after spending nearly a month and a half there. Since then, Gardner has appeared in a majority of games, but it is evident Girardi views Melky Cabrera as the Yankees' starting center fielder. Offense Defense Baserunning

New York Yankees A-Ball, Charleston RiverDogs, Season in Review

08 Sep 2009 15:36:59 PDT

Written by Greg Fertel
His power is virtually non-existent so far; he's hit only 6 home runs in 539 at bats, but he is only 20 years old. I expect him to start next season in Tampa and continue to hit. Of all the prospects in the Yankees' farm system, this is the guy whose stock has risen the most in the 2009 season. He will d...

Opinion: Breaking down the numbers and other observations in Yankeeland

16 Aug 2009 19:31:53 PDT

Written by Vince Mercandetti
If it had the same pieces in April and May that it has now it could be on pace for 110 wins, as it is it's on pace for over 101, something unapproached since the 2003 Yankees. And yes, they still play poorly against the Angels and have a losing record against the Red Sox (on a side note, how crazy is i...

Opinion: Yankees and Red Sox in a familiar place

21 Jul 2009 09:54:19 PDT

Written by Vince Mercandetti
The AL East has become a Yo-yo. Today marks the exact reason you simply ignore what the Yankees look like in Los Angeles. New York is hands down the best road team in the AL East, but in LA they will look feeble, sloppy and ugly. If you watch the Yankees in any year for any extended amount of time, you...

The New Yankee Stadium: A New Englander's Review

16 Jun 2009 08:09:37 PDT

Written by BHL
I have been of the opinion for quite some time that Fenway Park is past its day and should be demolished, and with a recent trip to see the New York Yankees take on the New York Mets on June 13, 2009, I'm not quite sure I can happily attend another Red Sox game at Fenway.

Opinion: New York should take a closer look at Pedro

30 Apr 2009 15:18:27 PDT

Written by Vince Mercandetti
Think about it before you make judgment; this isn't a desperation move, it's a logical one. The Red Sox didn't sign Brad Penny because they didn't have a suitable fifth starter, nor did they sign Saito because they didn't think they had a setup man. If you can criticize Brian Cashman for ANYTH...

21 Apr 2009 13:46:28 PDT

Written by Tom Schecter
Paul O'Neill, David Cone, and Tino Martinez got probably the loudest cheers from the first audience ever to set foot in the new Yankee Stadium. Other well-loved notables: Berra, Randolph, Boomer Wells (who sat in the bleachers for the game!) and Goony Bird Larsen.

Opinion: Welcome to the new Yankee Stadium

05 Apr 2009 20:33:08 PDT

Written by Vince Mercandetti
Lost in the shuffle of the offseason under the pile of new signings, position battles and A-Rod dramas was perhaps the most exciting part of 2009 for Yankees fans;their new stadium. I have my own impressions from watching the exhibition games against the Cubs over the weekend, but our budd...

Opinion: It's the Final Homestand

12 Sep 2008 12:33:37 PDT

Written by Vince Mercandetti
Regression should be the 2008 team slogan. Only Mike Mussina and Johnny Damon exceeded expectations for a long period of time. Andy Pettitte, Derek Jeter, Robinson Cano, Melky Cabrera, Alex Rodriguez, Jorge Posada, Wilson Betemit, Phil Hughes, Ian Kennedy and Shelley Duncan-these are...

Opinion: Tempers Flare as Halos Pound Yanks & Lower Magic Number to 2

09 Sep 2008 11:08:35 PDT

The Angels could finally put the rest of the AL West out of their collective misery and clinch the division with a win tonight over the New York Yankees and a Texas Rangers loss. It would break the record for the earliest a team has claimed the division, a distinction currently held by the 1971...

Opinion: 5 Things That Need To Change, 5 That Need To Stay The Same

Written by Moshe Mandel
5) Johnny Damon Is No Longer A Horse’s Posterior- Damon had been the most productive Yankee until the time of his injury. With Jeter and Abreu struggling, Damon was the only one making things happen at the top of the lineup. He also played a very decent left field. I like Brett Gardner, but he is n...

1) Chien-Ming Wang- Wang was back to his usual self during his Opening Day start, tossing seven very good innings against the Jays. He allowed eight baserunners over those innings, and allowed few hard hit balls. The Yankees need Wang to anchor this staff and eat plenty of innings, and he del...

Opinion: Judging The Mets Package For Santana In Terms Of Yankees Prospects

30 Jan 2008 18:26:01 PST

Written by Steve Lombardi
Yeah, I know, stupid of me to dare compare Yankees prospects (who are all wunderkind and Über-valuable) to prospects from an organization other than the Yankees (who, being non-Yankees prospects, are all therefore just minor league filler). Stupid, stupid, stoooop-id!

Written by Daniel Rathman
Before the Winter Meetings in Nashville earlier this month, the Twins seemed to be in control of the Johan Santana trade talks, with several teams pursuing the two-time Cy Young winner. The Red Sox seemed to be leading the way, with packages built around either southpaw Jon Lester or cente...
