Latest news and updates about the Yankees
MLB Trade Rumors | Charlie Wright: The Yankees made a minor trade on Sunday, trading infielder Braden Shewmake to the Astros for Wilmy Sanchez. Shewmake has appeared in the majors for the Braves and White Sox and was signed as a minor-league depth infielder. As for who the Yankees have picked up, Sanchez is a […]
The start of the game was delayed a little over three hours, but it didn’t seem to affect either the Yankees’ bats or arms. With a chance to sweep the Royals, the club did just that, flattening their onetime bitter rivals behind Ryan Weathers’ strong start and a big first inning for the lineup. The […]
The week ended how it began, with a Kansas City loss. That is also how the entire middle went. Kansas City’s losing streak has extended to seven games and they will go home after an 0-6 road trip. Cole Ragans’ first inning started BB, HR, BB, K, BB, BB and he still managed to get […]
It’s Sunday once more, and you know what that means — it’s time for our weekly social media roundup! This week, we focus not just on the present, but also on the legacy of the past, as we celebrated Jackie Robinson Day this Wednesday. How did the Yankees acknowledge this important day — as well […]
The New York Yankees are eyeing a series sweep of the Kansas City Royals on Sunday afternoon, and first pitch of the expected matchup between southpaws Ryan Weathers and Cole Ragans was supposed to be 1:35pm ET. Unfortunately, the weather isn’t cooperating. Even before the Yankees revealed their starting lineup for Sunday, they posted at […]
The Yankees have managed to right the ship a little bit this weekend, taking the first two games of this series versus the Royals. After a bit of a rocky week or so, the way to really get back on track isn’t just to win a series, but to sweep it, and ahead of a […]
Another afternoon tilt in New York for the Royals today as they try to salvage one win on what has been a truly demoralizing road trip. Two new faces have joined the team for today’s game. Elias Diaz will be catching; the veteran has been in the big leagues since 2015 but has never played […]
Entering play on Sunday, April 19th, the American League only has five of its 15 teams with a positive run differential. Normally, a small number like that means there’s a great likelihood of it being a top-heavy league, but that’s not necessarily the case. In fact, for all the potential flaws that the Yankees have […]
During my tenure at Pinstripe Alley—hell, during my entire time as a baseball fan—I’ve never been shy about delving into the team’s history and exploring the lives of its long roll call of players, both incredible and regrettable. We provide plenty of other coverage on the current-day activities of the teams, so I like having […]
On the afternoon of October 7, 1995, Scott Kamieniecki prepared to take the mound at the Kingdome for what would be the pinnacle of his Yankees tenure. As would be the case throughout that tenure, though, the moment was fraught. On the heels of a near-family tragedy the day prior that left him shaken, the […]
The Yankees were one of the first teams in action yesterday, and quickly set about making the Royals one of the first teams out of action. It all turned into the Yanks’ first big blowout of the year, as they smoked KC with four homers in a 13-4 score. Huzzah! The only downside was that […]
Triple-A Scranton/Wilkes-Barre RailRiders: L, 4-9 (7) and L, 4-7 (7) at Syracuse Mets Game 1: LF Jasson Domínguez 1-4, 1 RBISS Oswaldo Cabrera 0-32B Max Schuemann 1-2, 1 HR, 1 RBI, 2 R, 1 BB, 1 SBCF Spencer Jones 0-3, 1 KRF Yanquiel Fernández 1-2, 1 RBI, 1 BBDH Seth Brown 0-3, 1 K1B Ernesto […]
The Yankees finally got some home cooking going on Saturday, putting a beatdown on the Royals to the tune of 13 runs while Will Warren made it a worry-free day tossing seven innings and striking out 11 batters. Cody Bellinger slugged two home runs on the day, Ben Rice made it three straight days with […]
SNY | John Flanigan: Will Warren dominated the Royals Saturday, holding them off the board into the seventh inning to continue an encouraging start. “The four-seam was really playing well,” Aaron Boone said of his second-year starter. “He got a lot of swing-and-miss, the changeup was good today too, I just think it was the overall mix […]
The Royals will probably win another game this year, but you’d be forgiven if you doubted it. Royals fans were hoping for a different result from the previous six games, and it was different, alright, just not the way they hoped. The Royals were blown out in New York. The Yankees hit four home runs […]
Their overall record is still fine, but the Yankees have struggled of late. Even a lot of their wins have required comebacks or them holding on for dear life over the final couple outs. That included Friday night’s series-opening win over the Royals. On Saturday afternoon in the Bronx, the Yankees finally played a laugher. […]
After an overall annoying series against the Angels, last night’s game was trending towards being annoying too, with the Yankees tied with the Royals in the eighth inning. Enter Ryan McMahon of all people. The embattled third baseball hit his first home run of the season at the best possible time, as his late two-run […]
The Royals have lost five in a row, including every game on this road trip. But today is a new day. And today could be the start of a long winning streak! It could happen! Manager Matt Quatraro seems to be feeling the pressure to shake his team out of their funk, if the lineup […]
The fact that this conversation is happening—even externally—is great news. The Yankees have a young, exciting, and highly talented player whose services they’d probably like to retain for a long time. This is not a luxury every organization has, obviously, and extending that relationship is something the Yankees should seriously consider with Cam Schlittler. Extensions […]
Of all the players who donned the pinstripes, Dennis Rasmussen was certainly one of them. If we’re only looking at the numbers, he was a pretty forgettable starter who was often competent but rarely dominant. And as he played for the good-but-not-good-enough Yankees of the mid-80s, he has no rings nor legendary postseason exploits to […]
It took some unexpected heroics from Ryan McMahon, but the Yankees picked up a much-needed victory in their series opener against the Royals. Having just played a very frustrating series against the Angels, the last thing they needed was a dumb loss to open the set against Kansas City. While the Yankees wouldn’t lose any […]
Yesterday afternoon, the baseball world received stunning news. Former Angels outfielder Garret Anderson, who earned three All-Star nods, won the 2003 Home Run Derby and All-Star Game MVP, had the game-winning hit in 2002 World Series Game 7, and sits atop the Angels franchise leaderboards in several categories, passed away at just 53 years old, […]

MLB.com | Sarah Langs: While it was overshadowed by Mike Trout’s homer spree, Judge and Stanton both homered in Thursday’s 11-4 loss against the Angels, marking the 61st time that they homered in the same game as teammates. With that, they are now tied for sixth place on the all-time list, sharing a spot with […]
Even after last year’s trade with the Rockies, we all should’ve known to some degree that Ryan McMahon wasn’t exactly going to be an Alex Rodriguez-type of third baseman at the plate. That being said, his struggles to start 2026 have gone way below what anyone could’ve reasonably hoped for. He’s even lost a lot […]
