News in the MLB : I am all for playing fair but are the new rules under which baseball players stand really fair? As blood tests become the new normal in Spring Training and athletes can’t go to anti-aging clinics without falling under public humiliation, the question becomes, WHAT IS FAIR ? Focused on fighting [...]
With Jorge Posada now three years removed from the game, and Russell Martin pricing himself out of the Bronx, the Yankees face an Opening Day dilemma they haven’t encountered since 1989: no clear candidate for the starting catcher job. Just five years ago, the Yankees looked lousy with catching prospects. Powerhouse slugger Jesus Montero—he of [...]
Thanks to the Rangers beating the Halos down in Texas 8-7, the New York Yankees are guaranteed at least the Wild Card berth in the 2012 Postseason but they are not done yet. The Yankees want the AL East, and ironically the Red Sox stand between them and winning the division. Yes, it is a [...]
New York Yankees loss + Baltimore Orioles win = AL East first-place tie. Yesterdays, 3-2, loss vs. the Blue Jays was the same old song of stranding runners on base and not doing anything to different to change things. The power hitting Yankees need to get back to hitting homers ASAP, as there are only four games left [...]
The New York Yankees had an opportunity to extend their AL East lead to two games last night at the Rogers Centre, but instead they didn’t just lose they got shutout by the Blue Jays 6-0. Now other than being embarrassed about not scoring a single run, the Yankees are practically handing the AL East to the Orioles, [...]
If you missed the New York Yankees beating of the Minnesota Twins yesterday afternoon, you obviously couldn’t have noticed the absence of Alex Rodriguez. Yes, A-rod was AWOL from both the field and the DH spot yesterday afternoon. And Newsday confirmed that he is suffering from a ‘bruised’ left foot. Truthfully, I didn’t really think [...]
In case you didn’t realize the New York Yankees are stealing the AL East, and I mean literally. No one could have predicted that the over-the-hill, Evil Empire would have the third most steals in baseball in the month of September, but fact is they do. The Yankees have 24 steals while being caught just [...]
One would presume that since the New York Yankees are in the most heated AL East pennant race in decades with the Orioles that I would have cared a tad more about the snooze fest that went on vs. the Twins last night. Truthfully, the moment YES’s Michael Kay confirmed that the Blue Jays had [...]
The New York Yankeeshave gone 8-2 in their last 10 games because they had too. The elevated sense of urgency to win is clear, as the Yankees (88-64) have to keep pace with the Baltimore Orioles (87-65) who remain a game back in the AL East standings; and Buck’s Birds just won’t lose. Oddly the [...]
The sport of baseball is in a fantastic place right now. The fact is that two of the 10-playoff berths only got locked up yesterday is absurd, considering there are only 12 -14 games left in the regular season. And the two teams who clinched spots were the Washington Nationals and Cincinnati Reds, both NL teams from the East and [...]
