Latest news and updates about the Yankees
Opening Day is tonight. Kind of. Well, the Yankees and Giants play tonight, on Netflix, so I guess it’s Opening Night. And there will be stars on the broadcast. From other sports. Not baseball, mind you. There will be wrestling people. On Netflix. I hate MLB sometimes. On to the links. Phillies news: MLB news:

Finally. It’s been 168 days since the New York Yankees’ 2025 campaign ended in Division Series disappointment at the hands of the eventual AL champion Toronto Blue Jays. That was a big ol’ bummer, but it’s ancient history now. The 2026 MLB season begins tonight with the Yankees and San Francisco Giants kicking off the […]
New York Daily News | Gary Phillips: By all accounts, the AL East is going to be a dogfight yet again. The Yankees bring a lot of talent to that fight, with two-time defending MVP Aaron Judge and a top of the pitching rotation that rivals anyone in baseball. There are still real questions with […]
Spring training is over! The Yankees wrapped up the exhibition portion of their season with a big win over the Cubs down in Arizona — 8-3 is your final. Let’s talk about it so we can turn our attention to the stuff that will matter in pursuit of #28. Gerrit Cole had a power pitcher’s […]
The Cubs’ final spring training game was a clunker, an 8-3 loss to the Yankees at Sloan Park. So this is going to be a very short game recap, as the team’s focus turns to the 2026 season opener Thursday at Wrigley Field. The Cubs scored both of their runs on solo homers. Alex Bregman […]

Go get ‘em, Edward.
There’s very “last day of school” vibes around today, with the final spring exhibition before Opening Day tomorrow, wrapping up this two-game set with the Cubs from Arizona. After a one-inning, 10-pitch spring debut last week, Gerrit Cole will get the ball ahead of a likely rehab assignment to try and tune up for a […]
Speaking to reporters ahead of the Yankees’ final spring training game, Aaron Boone confirmed the team’s plans for their Opening Day roster. Luis Gil will be optioned to the minors, while relievers Jake Bird and Brent Headrick will take the last spots on the team. Peter wrote a little while ago about Rule 5 pick […]
The Braves made a roster move on Tuesday, claiming RHP Osvaldo Bido off waivers from the Yankees. To make room on the roster, the Braves added LHP Joey Wentz to the 60-Day IL. This is the result of Wentz tearing his ACL a few weeks ago, which will cause him to miss all of 2026. […]
With a little more than 24 hours before first pitch of Opening Day, the Yankees are putting the final touches on their active roster. The latest move saw the team select the contract of right-handed reliever Cade Winquest to the big-league roster; Jon Heyman was the first to report the news. The Yankees selected Winquest […]
On Sunday, the New York Daily News’ Gary Phillips wrote a story about ascendent Yankees pitching prospect Carlos Lagrange which gave me pause when I read the headline. Specifically, the story was about Lagrange’s partnership with a start-up company called Finlete. Finlete is a platform of sorts which allows fans to essentially treat players like […]
Tuesday notes… Here are today’s particulars. For the third straight day, neither team’s lineup was available at posting time. I assure you that will change starting Thursday. Edward Cabrera will start for the Cubs. Gerrit Cole will start for the Yankees. As noted above, there’s no TV today. There will be a radio broadcast on […]

The 2026 Major League Baseball season will reportedly begin tomorrow, March 25th, when the San Francisco Giants take on the New York Yankees in the hallowed grounds of the Bronx. (We all know the season doesn’t really begin until the next day when the Cincinnati Reds play host to the Boston Red Sox at Great […]
Baseball history is full of great players. It is also full of players whose stories become intertwined with legends so large that they never quite stand on their own. Ernie Shore just happens to be one of those players. The former Yankee celebrates his birthday today, and while his career deserves recognition on its own, […]
The long night of the offseason is approaching its conclusion! Pitchers and catchers report to the Tampa spring training complex in nine days as of the time that this post goes up, and we’ll have exhibition games beginning on February 20th against the Orioles. Opening Day in San Francisco is just over a month after […]

Heading into the spring, Jasson Domínguez was the consensus pick for the Yankees’ fourth outfielder spot, as the former top prospect, now headed into his sophomore season, would be the team’s number one option in the event one of Cody Bellinger, Trent Grisham, Giancarlo Stanton, or — baseball gods forbid — Aaron Judge had to […]

Javier Assad will stretch out in Iowa. Ben Brown made the squad. Megham Montemurro has camp cuts* {$}. Game results: Cubs 15, Yankees 6. Al has details. Miscellaneous: […]
I’ve written a couple posts in spring training about the ABS challenge system and how teams are going to react to it. It seems like an element tailor-built for the Yankees; the team preaches control over the strike zone at the plate and was the first to really lean into pitch-framing almost two decades ago. […]
