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 [...]
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 [...]
The New York Yankees are rolling. Winning their fifth game in a row by beating the Braves for the second night with a score of 6-4. Skipper Joe Girardi and crew deserve the recognition here for guiding this team through all the adversity and injuries. So now that we all know the Yankees can still win, [...]
As I was sitting down to watch the Yankees host the Washington Nationals today, the YES networkboys dropped a bomb. That pitcher Andy Pettitte has un-retired and had signed a minor league, 1-year, 2.5 million deal with a plan to return to the Bronx again. It was said that Pettitte is allowed to take all [...]

Finally, the New York Yankees GM Brian Cashman resigned ex-Athletics hottie Eric Chavez. It is mind-boggling that this took so long, especially after reading a mid-January post on MLB Trade Rumors that there were a number of teams interested in him. This was not surprising because when Chavez is healthy he is as solid a player [...]
I don’t think anyone was surprised when ESPN’s Buster Onley reported that the New York Yankees signed Raul Ibanezto a one year, $1.1 million deal with incentives, which could earn him up to $4 million. But does signing a DH even make sense? Well it is familiar song, as the Yankees have a habit of signing guys like [...]
Ken Rosenthal of FOX SPORTS confirmed what he first tweeted, that the New York Yankees have a deal in place to trade AJ Burnettto the Pittsburgh Pirates, pending MLB Commissioner Bud Selig’s approval and passing a physical on Sunday. Well the good news for Burnett is that he doesn’t have to show his face at Yankees Camp after [...]
I am kicking myself for presuming that the media would go dormant on trade rumors surrounding New York Yankees pitcher AJ Burnett. As usual the spark came via FOX Sports Ken Rosenthal who reported that the Pittsburgh Pirates might land Burnett. He also wrote that the Yankees were willing to eat most of the $33 [...]
