ESPN's Michael Kay says there is "absolutely no truth" to previous reports that New York Yankees infielder Anthony Volpe declined to switch from shortstop to second base in the minors.
Just two weeks ago, the New York Yankees looked like the team to beat in the American League and one of the best teams in MLB. Now, they’re making history for all the wrong reasons. The Yankees entered this week’s…
There was a moment where the Yankees’ hopes of turning their deficit around in one series burned a little brighter on Tuesday, as Ben Rice launched a three-run home run to give them a one-run lead in the third inning. Unfortunately, an inning later those hopes were dashed when the Rays scored four runs and […]
Despite earning a dubious distinction with back-to-back 17-strikeout games, New York Yankees manager Aaron Boone is not looking to alter his team's approach at the plate.
The Yankees lost to the Rays, 6-4. Many fans of...
Following a second-half collapse for the ages, the New York Mets spent this past winter reinventing their team. They said let franchise legend Pete Alonso leave for Baltimore in free agency, dealt fellow longtime Met Brandon Nimmo to the Texas Rangers for Marcus Semien, saw their two-time NL Reliever of the Year Edwin Díaz leave […]

ESPN: The All-Star Game and Home Run Derby are upon us, and after finding out he’ll be making his first Midsummer Classic, Ben Rice also accepted an invite to participate in the derby. The 27-year-old enters play today with 25 dingers on the season and has continued raking after a breakout campaign last year. Rice […]
Coming off three consecutive losses, the Tampa Bay Rays were needing to bounce back against the Yankees on Tuesday night and they did just that behind a stellar performance by Ian Seymour and production from the bottom of the lineup. Having dropped game one of the four game set on Monday night, the Rays sent […]
The New York Yankees had every reason to feel encouraged after opening their four-game series with a 5-1 victory over Tampa Bay. Even Tuesday’s 6-4 loss to the AL East leaders only evened the series. While that may not seem concerning, the scoreline tells only part of the story. A broader look reveals a much […]
The post “We Are Struggling” – Aaron Boone Sends Blunt Wake-Up Call After Yankees Script Ugly Franchise History appeared first on EssentiallySports .
For all the ink that has been (rightfully) spilled about a struggling Yankees’ offense, the once-dominant starting rotation has gone under the radar in the blame game for the team’s poor play over the past two weeks. While injuries to Max Fried and Carlos Rodón have certainly thinned things out, the results speak for themselves […]
The Yankees are having a major issue right now. They...
We won a game yesterday. We win one today; that’s two in a row. We win one tomorrow; that’s called a winning streak. It has happened before. It’s been two weeks since the Yankees won back-to-back games, but they’ll have the opportunity to do so tonight after an inspiring effort in the first game of […]

Thank goodness the World Cup is in full swing, because the Yankees are trying their hardest to make this a miserable summer for sports fans of a pinstriped persuasion. Even after winning on Monday, they have lost 12 of their last 16, subjecting us to one of their worst summer swoons in an era defined […]
A trade between the New York Yankees and New York Mets is a rarity. But would a blockbuster sending Francisco […]
Injuries are a real party pooper. Just like with the major league roster, the Yankees’ top prospects are dropping like flies. With several top hitters and pitchers injured, the guys on the periphery are going to get a chance to shine, and there’s one guy in particular who’s starting to gain some real helium down […]
The New York Yankees will have a representative at next week’s Home Run Derby, which will take place at Citizens Bank Park in Philadelphia on Monday. It will be none other than Ben Rice, a legitimate AL MVP candidate and one of the best left-handed hitters in the sport these days. The young slugger shared […]
Ben Rice’s incredible rise from promising young prospect to one of the New York Yankees’ biggest stars just added another memorable chapter. The first-time MLB All-Star took to Instagram on Tuesday afternoon to announce that he will officially be participating…
Aaron Boone and the New York Yankees must accept that they are a far better team when José Caballero starts instead of Anthony Volpe.
Having kept the New York Yankees' offense afloat amid Aaron Judge's absence, Ben Rice is going to put his prodigious power on display in the 2026 Home Run Derby.
From Bryan Hoch: The moments immediately following the roughest outing of Cam Schlittler’s young career weren’t what bothered

Cam Schlittler grew up a fan of the Boston Red Sox. Now, he's the greatest enemy of Red Sox fans. The New York Yankees' ace continues to walk the walk, however.
Former WFAN hosts John Jastremski and Sal Licata have teamed up to launch a New York sports podcast on the BetRivers Network.

The Yankees, having existed for well over a century, have had more than their fair share of characters don their uniform. Some of them were stars like Yogi Berra, and some of them were role players like Billy Martin. It’s players like them that add some texture to the history of the team and of […]
