The 2012 MLB season is as exciting as ever but thanks to the media to divert the attention, while at the same time putting Yankee Universe into a tizzy, about something that has nothing to do with the now. So, it came as no surprise when I read, courtesy of CBSSports.com Jon Heyman, that the return [...]
There is not much more to say about the New York Yankees. Tragic? Getting there. Heartbreaking? Feels more nauseating. Struggling? I wish but that was last week. Panic? My finger is officially on the button. So, know the question is, are the Yankees in this pennant race or not? What do you think? © Kate [...]
In a frantic move to fill the void for an injured 3B Alex Rodriguez and the recently hurt 1B Mark Teixeira, the New York Yankees traded reliever Chad Qualls for infielder Casey McGehee from the Pittsburgh Pirates as confirmed via tweet from NY Post’s Joel Sherman. A-rod is out till mid-September with a broken hand, and [...]
Even with the disaster happening out on the West Coast, the New York Yankees are still sitting comfortably atop the AL Eastdespite losing five of their last six games and losing Alex Rodriquez to a fractured left hand. What worries me is that fans don’t realize that even though October might look close on the calendar [...]
I learned of the Ichiro Suzuki trade made by the New York Yankees from my Starbucksguy who informed me as he was making my double, tall skim latte. At first, I accused the poor guy of lying and actually said, “that is not even funny.” Well that explains why he wasn’t laughing. Honestly, I am [...]
The New York Yankees have been without Brett Gardnerin left field all but nine games this season, and the impact could have been catastrophic but it hasn’t been. The Yankees are no doubt slower sans the speedy Gardner, as the Yankees rank 24th in steals with 50 on the season, skipper Joe Girardi and GM [...]
Mariano vs. Soriano is a topic considered sacrilegious in Yankee Universe that no one wants to brooch but with the recent rumors that Mariano Rivera could return in 2012 it has to be. First let me be clear in stating my opinion that Rivera is the greatest closer ever to play the game. There is no [...]
Olympian gold-medalist Bob Richards once said: “It may sound strange, but many champions are made champions by setbacks.” And I think most sports fans would agree with this sentiment wholeheartedly. As in any sport, to call yourself a champion is a title you have to earn first; but regarding baseball the longevity of the 162-game season makes multiple [...]
At the start of the 2012 season, I asked my father, ‘what could be the worst thing to happen to the New York Yankees this season?’ He responded without even taking a breath, “CC Sabathia getting injured.” So when the news broke, prior to today’s third and final afternoon romp with the Cleveland Indians, that CC Sabathia [...]
To say the New York Yankeesare on a roll would be an understatement. Currently the Bombers are on a nine game winning streak having steamrolled over the Mets, Braves and this past weekend the Washington Nationals. The Yankees are 9-1 in their last 10 games; and have won 19 of their last 23. They are 40-25 [...]
