Red Sox no-hit Yankees into sixth in feeble loss at Fenway
Payton Tolle last faced the Yankees on April 23rd, when he held them to a run on just three hits in six innings, tallying a career-high 11 strikeouts. It’s hard to think that he could improve on that outing, but he took things to another level tonight, logging one of the most dominant performances by […]
New York Yankees @ Boston Red Sox: Will Warren vs. Payton Tolle
What do the Yankees have in store for us tonight after a sloppy effort in the opener at Fenway? Hopefully they have cleaned up their act after committing four errors leading to six unearned runs scoring. All units were to blame, not just the defense, with multiple HBPs and many runners stranded. It’ll take a […]
Yankees Mailbag: Weighing a Tarik Skubal pursuit
Good afternoon everyone, it’s time to dive back into the mailbag and answer some of your questions. Remember to send in your questions for our weekly call by e-mail to pinstripealleyblog [at] gmail [dot] com. Michael R. asks: What’s going on with Dax Kilby? Is he in a witness protection program? Last I heard it was […]
The Yankees’ bullpen isn’t elite, but it’s solid
It’s approaching the halfway point of the season, and we have a pretty good idea of who these Yankees are. Their starting rotation is a top-five group in Major League Baseball, possessing both elite talent at the front and enviable depth at the back. The offense is a bit more top-heavy, but still plenty powerful, […]
Do the Yankees really swoon in June?
For all but one year of the Aaron Judge era, the Yankees have been pretty good. They’ve won at least 90 games in seven of the eight full seasons since he ushered in a new era of contention in the Bronx in 2017, with the lone exception being the 2023 season, where poor roster construction […]
Yankees Sequence of the Week: Ryan Weathers (6/24)
The Yankees rebounded from a recent three-game losing streak to secure the final two games of their series against the Tigers. They couldn’t keep that momentum rolling into the series opener against the Red Sox as countless mental errors piled up en route to a 6-3 loss. As such, we have to go back to […]
Yankees Birthday of the Day: Derek Jeter
We use these daily posts to revisit the biographies of Yankees past, from the stars that delivered 27 World Series titles or those that have been nearly forgotten to history. Today we celebrate a player that everyone should be familiar with, the Captain that took over the mantle from Don Mattingly and led the club […]
Yankees Rivalry Roundup: Caminero puts a hurtin’ on Kansas City
The Yankees lost some ground in the American League East on Thursday. A tough loss in Fenway, combined with a dominant win by the Rays brings New York’s division lead down to 2.5 games. The day’s short schedule still provided plenty of pop, excellent pitching, and plenty to pay attention to around the American League. […]
The Yankees Rotation Depth Inventory: June
Throughout the course of a season, attrition will strike any major-league roster. The unit most vulnerable is often the starting pitching corps. The Yankees began the year without Gerrit Cole, Carlos Rodón, and Clarke Schmidt, and while Cole and Rodón are back, the team has since lost Max Fried to injury. In the event that […]

Today on Pinstripe Alley – 6/26/26
The Yankees dropped their series opener against the Red Sox in a rather sloppy effort, with several errors culminating in Cam Schlittler allowing a four-run fifth inning capitalized by a big two-run home run off the bat of former Yankee prospect Caleb Durbin. That blew what was a 2-0 New York lead up until that […]
Yankees news: MLB drops bombshell CBA terms
CBS Sports | Dayn Perry: I’m sure you’ve heard by now MLB’s latest offer in ongoing CBA talks. The league proposes caps on free agent contracts, “hometown” or a Bird Rule-esque advantage for teams to retain their own players by adding an additional year to those capped contracts, and setting a slightly higher MLB minimum […]
Sloppy Yankees lose an ugly one in Boston
The Yankees and Red Sox entered this four-game series at Fenway Park on opposite sides of the spectrum, as they had the best record in the American League at 48-31 while Boston entered dead last at 32-46. Nonetheless, the script was flipped on Thursday night with New York looking the part of a shakier team […]
Aaron Judge, Ben Rice, Cody Bellinger advance in MLB All-Star voting
This evening, MLB announced the results of the first phase of All-Star voting on MLB Network. Aaron Judge, Ben Rice, and Cody Bellinger earned enough votes to advance to Phase 2. The top overall vote-getter in the American League was Ernie Clement (that a decent player like Clement leads the voting brings into question what […]
New York Yankees @ Boston Red Sox: Cam Schlittler vs. Connelly Early
Fresh off a win over the back-to-back American League Cy Young Award winner to clinch the series in Detroit, the Yankees head to Boston with Cam Schlittler set to take the ball in the opener of a four-game series at Fenway. We are almost to the midway point of the season, and through five meetings […]
The Rivalry from the Mound: Famous Yankees-Red Sox pitching matchups
If there is one thing New Yorkers love more than anything, it is a good headline. From the front page to the back of the tabloids, to the names lit up in the marquee lights that inspire the city that never sleeps. In a place that is never starved for things to do or people […]
Yankees Birthday of the Day: Mike Stanley
The 1993 Yankees were a pivot point. After posting four straight losing seasons for the first time in nearly 80 years, the ’93 squad climbed out of the morass with an 88-win season. While that finish left them with the third-best record in a two-team AL playoff picture, it served notice that the Gene Michael […]
Yankees Rivalry Roundup: Rays down Royals to keep pace
Thanks to two homers from Paul Goldschmidt and a go-ahead shot from Jasson Domínguez, the Yankees maintained their cushion atop the AL and East Division standings with a 4-2 win on Wednesday night. While the Tigers aren’t the same playoff team that they’ve been the past two years, winning a road series over a team […]
New York Yankees vs. Boston Red Sox: Series Preview
Last year, the Yankees and Red Sox met in an AL Wild Card Series that seemed like it could easily go either way. Of course, it went to a decisive Game 3, where Cam Schlittler delivered a monster outing, and the teams have gone in opposite directions since. This year, the Yankees — while you […]
Yankees prospects: Garrett Martin homers, stays hot in Triple-A beginnings
Triple-A Scranton/Wilkes-Barre RailRiders: L, 6-8 at Indianapolis Indians LF Duke Ellis 1-4, BB, K, SB2B-SS-2B Marco Luciano 0-4, BB, K, throwing error — some weird defensive notes afoot, though not as funny as Travis d’Arnaud and Asdrubal Cabrera with the Mets a few years agoDH Yanquiel Fernández 1-4, RBI, SFCF Garrett Martin 2-5, 2B, HR, […]
Is Yankees manager Aaron Boone’s fan survey grade fair?
Good morning, all. The Yankees finished off what turned out to be a nice three-game set in Detroit last night, as Paul Goldschmidt turned back the clock with a multi-homer game off no less a foe than defending two-time Cy Young Award winner Tarik Skubal. Jasson Domínguez had his own key bomb off Skubal as […]
Yankees news: Ryan McMahon to IL with throat infection
MLB.com | Thomas Harrigan: Yesterday afternoon, the Yankees announced that they had placed third baseman Ryan McMahon on the 10-day IL with a throat infection. According to Greg Joyce on Twitter, he was diagnosed with peritonsillar abscess, a rather unpleasant-sounding tonsil infection that has prompted doctors to recommend him not to engage in any physical […]
Old man Goldy and the Martian lift Yanks to win over Detroit
Facing off against Tarik Skubal, the Yankees were going to need a strong start to best the reigning two-time AL Cy Young winner. They got just that, and though Skubal managed to look a lot more like his old self and shut down the lineup for long stretches, the offense made their moments count and […]
New York Yankees @ Detroit Tigers: Ryan Weathers vs. Tarik Skubal
After evening up this series on Tuesday the Yankees have a chance to walk out of Detroit with a series victory, but they’re going to have to face the two-time reigning Cy Young Award winner to manage it. Tarik Skubal turned what could’ve been a lengthy injury into an blip on the radar, undergoing elbow […]
A look at the first half of the season for the RailRiders
Hard to believe, but the Scranton/Wilkes-Barre RailRiders have reached the midpoint of their season. The New York Yankees’ Triple-A affiliate wrapped up first-half play in the International League with a record of 37-37. That was good for 12th in the 20-team standings, 9.5 games behind the first-half champion Memphis Redbirds (47-28). The RailRiders began second-half […]
