What do you think of Don Mattingly’s pitching staff usage so far?

There have only been a handful of games in which to judge anything done by Don Mattingly so far. There really isn’t any discernable difference between him and Rob Thomson on much of anything that either does, but one thing does sort of stick out – he’s not a fan of letting starters go too […]

Orioles news: Helsley hits the IL, O’s lose to Yankees

Good morning Birdland, Sometimes it feels like the Orioles are in a free fall, and then you look at their 15-17 record and realize that things could be much worse. Yesterday was one of those days. Before their 7-2 loss to the Yankees on the Friday night, the Orioles got some bad injury news. Their […]

Yankees Birthday of the Day: George Giles

The New York Black Yankees were a Negro Leagues team that existed from 1931 to 1948. True to their name, they called Yankee Stadium home from 1940 onwards until their demise. They were not a particularly successful franchise, with a 258-497 overall record, but they count among their alumni such legends as Satchel Paige, Ted […]

Today on Pinstripe Alley – 5/2/26

The good times keep rolling in New York, as the Yankees returned to the Bronx and opened up their first series with the Orioles this year with a 7-2 victory.

Yankees news: Tests on Jasson Domínguez’s elbow come back clean

SNY | John Flanigan: Ahead of Friday’s game, the Yankees got some good news, as the tests done on Jasson Domínguez’s elbow came back clean. There had been worry after he was hit on the elbow by a pitch in Wednesday’s game, leading to him exiting the game and undergoing X-rays and other tests. However, […]

Orioles fall behind early, never recover in 7-2 loss to Yankees

Two early Yankees home runs dug the Orioles a hole they couldn’t fly out of, as the O’s dropped their series opener in the Bronx 7-2. As we’ve seen many times this season, a disastrous 2nd inning put the Orioles behind early and ruined the outing for Povich. With the game tied at 1-1, Povich […]

Yankees beat Orioles with ease on Friday behind Ben Rice, Will Warren

Spearheaded by a fantastic effort from Will Warren, the Yankees took early command of their first regular-season matchup against the Orioles in 2026, ultimately winning it 7-2. Specifically on Warren, seeing the front-level starters dominating is all well and good, but the built-in expectations may work against the excitement of it in certain instances. Although […]

New York Yankees vs. Baltimore Orioles: Will Warren vs. Cade Povich

Entering May, believe it or not, the Yankees will be playing only their third series of the 2026 season against a divisional rival. The Baltimore Orioles roll into town fresh off a series win against the Houston Astros that felt more like a par than a birdie, given how the Houston season has trended—not to […]

Yankees Birthday of the Day: Brandon Claussen

Brian Cashman was ready for a change. A 36-year-old Robin Ventura was showing signs of wear, slashing just .251/.344/.392. On a star-studded Yankees roster, his spot at third base seemed the most plausible position to upgrade. It just so happened that the Reds were in the midst of a fire sale and were looking to […]

Today on Pinstripe Alley – 5/1/26

You never want to lose heading into an off-day, but something tells me the Yankees didn’t have too bad of a flight back home. Though a shutout loss to the Rangers left a sour final note as the Bombers headed to New York, the setback still left them with a stellar 7-2 record on a […]

Yankees news: Max Fried, pickoff master

MLB.com | Bryan Hoch: Andy Pettitte, you’ve got company; Max Fried is making a case for himself as the Yankees pitcher with the best pickoff move.
