The Yankees look to rebound from last night’s tough loss in Chicago this afternoon as they take on the White Sox in the finale of their four-game set. Both teams’ lineups have formidable challenges ahead of them today as the Yankees will send Nestor Cortes to the hill while the Chi-Sox counter with 26-year-old, hard-throwing … Continue reading NYY @ CHW: Nestor Cortes vs. Michael Kopech
Should We Worry About IKF? (Yes and no…)
When your favorite team is playing .750 baseball one-fifth of the way into the season the tendency is to look for problems, which in many cases, are unlikely to even be problems as the season progresses. That said, the defense of Yankees’ shortstop Isiah Kiner-Falefa has been less than optimal lately, which is the polite … Continue reading Should We Worry About IKF? (Yes and no…)
NYY vs. CHW: Gerrit Cole vs. Vince Velasquez
Apparently, the Yankees’ position players were getting a little bored with the well-deserved, but frequent and widespread praise the pitching staff has received so far this season. The hitters decided that the best way to get some attention for themselves was to put up consecutive game totals of six and five runs against Toronto, then … Continue reading NYY vs. CHW: Gerrit Cole vs. Vince Velasquez
NYY vs. TOR: Jameson Taillon vs. José Berríos
Wow, we barely had time to come down from last night’s win before the Bombers tee it up again this afternoon in the Bronx. Jameson Taillon will toe the slab for the Yanks, who’ll be looking to sweep the short two-game series from their division rival Blue Jays. José Berríos will be on the mound … Continue reading NYY vs. TOR: Jameson Taillon vs. José Berríos
What I Saw (and you may have missed)
Last night’s game certainly had a wild (and appropriate for Yankees fans) ending, which was apropos given the way the first 3:39 of game time had gone. I can’t speak for all Yankees fans of course but I’m sure I wasn’t the only one who spent a good chunk of the night alternating between a … Continue reading What I Saw (and you may have missed)
NYY vs. TOR: Luis Severino vs. Yusei Kikuchi
The Yankees begin a quick two-game set with their division rivals from Toronto tonight in the Bronx. As I wrote earlier today, the soft landing part of the schedule is officially gone as the next seven weeks are going to be a little more challenging for the Bombers. (Hey, nobody said it would be easy…) … Continue reading NYY vs. TOR: Luis Severino vs. Yusei Kikuchi
What the Yankees’ Schedule Tells Us
A few weeks back – April 19th to be exact - I wrote how the Yankees were entering a crucial stretch of the schedule in which they would need to make a move in the AL East if they had serious intentions of winning the division in 2022. For the Yankees, the two-and-a-half-week stretch was … Continue reading What the Yankees’ Schedule Tells Us
NYY vs TEX: Nestor Cortes vs Jon Gray
It’s Monday, but to take the sting off of that and the dud of the loss in the second game yesterday, we have day baseball in the Bronx today. The Bombers take on the Texas Rangers again in the boogie down in the rubber match of their three-game series, before welcoming the Blue Jays back … Continue reading NYY vs TEX: Nestor Cortes vs Jon Gray
Quick Recap and Game 2 Preview:
The Yankees got a great game from Gerrit Cole (but a questionable decision to leave him in the game) and bunted far too often, but another shutdown performance from the bullpen and a walk-off long ball from Gleyber did the job. Cue Sinatra! As much as we’d like the rest of the Sunday to celebrate, … Continue reading Quick Recap and Game 2 Preview:
NYY vs. TEX: Gerrit Cole vs. Dane Dunning
Remarkably, the rain has ended, and we’re going to have hardball in the Bronx in just a little while. Here’s your need to know for the first game of the three-game set with the Texas Rangers, with all three to be played out over the next 24 hours. The Yankees will send their ace Gerrit … Continue reading NYY vs. TEX: Gerrit Cole vs. Dane Dunning
