Yankees Mailbag: Reviewing the minor league standouts
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. Darth_Lazarus asks: Do we think Garver has anything left in the tank? Not particularly, but with the complete lack of catchers […]
Yankees fans think Jasson Domínguez is more likely than Anthony Volpe to impact 2027
Welcome to SB Nation Reacts, a survey of fans across Major League Baseball. Throughout the year we ask questions of the most plugged-in Yankees fans and fans across the country. Although the New York Yankees had a somewhat-reserved Trade Deadline in only bringing aboard Luis García Jr. and Heliot Ramos, they did find another way […]
The worst offense in a winning streak in Yankees’ history
The Yankees’ offense hasn’t been particularly great lately. Ahead of Wednesday’s game against the Mariners, in which they actually cracked double digits, they had averaged just 3.1 runs per game on their recent home stand. Yet in spite of that, they had also gone 4-3 through Tuesday, which is not what you’d expect in a […]
The Yankees Rotation Depth Inventory: August
With Carlos Rodón scheduled to make a second rehab start this week, one of the the biggest questions among Yankees prognosticators is whether Will Warren or Ryan Weathers should bounce to the bullpen once he returns. It’s a delightful rarity in the modern game to have a glut at starting pitcher. Still, as close as the […]
Yankees Birthday of the Day: Jim Mason
By the time the Yankees reached the 1976 World Series, Jim Mason was a forgotten man. After beginning the ‘75 season as the team’s starting shortstop, he gradually descended in the team’s pecking order as his offense slipped, first serving as a part-time player and then purely as a late-inning defensive replacement. Mason would appear […]
Yankees Rivalry Roundup: Boston shuts down the Jays
The Bombers took a painful 1-0 loss on Thursday at the hand of the Mariners. They mustered just one hit against Seattle, wasting a very solid effort from Max Fried, as they drop to 6.5 games out of first place in the East. As something resembling a silver lining, they were far from the only […]
New York Yankees vs. Toronto Blue Jays: Series Preview
Following a dance with the Mariners at home, the Yankees are heading north of the border for a three-game set with a largely struggling Toronto club. Despite looking up at a significant deficit in the AL East standings, the Blue Jays are at least playing some decent ball of late, winning five of their last […]
Yankees prospects: ERC pitches his best start of the year
Triple-A Scranton/Wilkes-Barre RailRiders: W, 5-1 at Lehigh Valley IronPigs 2B Anthony Volpe 1-4, 1 2B, 1 RBI, 1 BB, 1 KLF Jasson Domínguez 0-4, 1 R, 1 BB, 1 K3B Max Schuemann 1-3, 1 2B, 1 BB, 1 KC J.C. Escarra 2-4, 2 RBI, 1 RSS Oswaldo Cabrera 0-41B Tyler Hardman 1-4, 1 HR, 2 […]
Today on Pinstripe Alley – 8/14/26
The Yankees couldn’t wrap up a sweep of Seattle on Thursday, instead sleeping through the matinee finale and getting shutout in a 1-0 loss. Max Fried was the unlucky victim of the disappearing offense, allowing just a solo shot in the second inning and getting a notch in the loss column for it. Still, the […]
Yankees news: Spencer goes to the swing doctor
The Athletic | Chris Kirschner ($): This past December, Spencer Jones went on a sojourn. Determined to fix the holes in his swing that led to an astronomical K% in his minor-league career, Jones and his swing coaches trekked to go see Richard Schenck, Aaron Judge’s personal swing coach. In spring training, Jones’ Ohtani-esque toe […]
Yankees leave bats at home, drop drowsy finale to Mariners
I sincerely hope nobody reading this recap took a friend, family member, or romantic partner to this afternoon’s Yankees game, hoping to make a baseball fan for life in the process. Last night would have been a great game for that sort of thing. The Bombers clawed their way back from an early deficit and […]
New York Yankees vs. Seattle Mariners: Max Fried vs. Logan Gilbert
Cynicism is very much in this summer. If it were an ice cream flavor it would be flying off the shelves in the midst of the late-summer humidity—which has only exacerbated everybody’s foul moods. Every lighthearted mention of something cool or good that took place in the world tends to be habitually followed up with […]
Yankees Sequence(s) of the Week: Gerrit Cole (8/8)
There have been many legendary pitchers to don the pinstripes. From Mariano Rivera to Whitey Ford, Andy Pettitte to Ron Guidry, the franchise history is rich with Hall of Famers, Cy Young winners, and record holders. Gerrit Cole can certainly count himself among their ranks, and tallied a special milestone last Saturday against the Braves. […]
When Apollo came to the Bronx
Ten billion dollars. Supposedly that’s what Yankees Global Enterprises, the consortium that controls the New York Yankees, Legends Hospitality, owns a controlling interest in the YES Network and partial stakes in New York City FC and AC Milan, is worth. That valuation was an agreed-upon sum as YGE received a $2.5 billion cash injection from […]
Yankees Rivalry Roundup: Rays win ninth in a row, Red Sox lose fifth in a row
Well that’s more like it from the Yankees offense! Despite Will Warren putting them in a hole early, the bats kept the pressure on all game long and produced some of the best slug we’ve seen all year. Trent Grisham and Spencer Jones led the charge, the former crushing a pair of home runs and […]
Yankees Birthday of the Day: Jay Buhner
In the initial years of George Steinbrenner’s ownership of the Yankees, things went pretty well. They won the 1977 and ‘78 World Series titles, they won pennants in 1976 and 1981 and made the postseason on several other occasions. While “The Boss’” general personality always made him likely to be a bit of a wild […]
Finally healthy, Gerrit Cole’s march towards Cooperstown is renewed
What is a Hall of Fame starting pitcher in today’s MLB? We know of a few retiring legends who’ve transcended eras and will be in Cooperstown: namely Zack Greinke, Clayton Kershaw, Justin Verlander, and Max Scherzer. But the game and the position itself have evolved in such a way that the traditional stats that used […]
Yankees prospects: Roderick Arias hits first Double-A homer
Triple-A Scranton/Wilkes-Barre RailRiders: L, 3-11 at Lehigh Valley IronPigs 2B Anthony Volpe 2-4, 3B, KRF Jasson Domínguez 0-4CF Max Schuemann 1-4, 2B, RBIC J.C. Escarra 1-4LF Marco Luciano 0-1 — replaced after fly out in second, might have tweaked something LF Duke Ellis 1-3, K, SBSS Oswaldo Cabrera 1-4, HR, RBI — 14 dingers for […]
What do you expect from Giancarlo Stanton the rest of the season?
As the Yankees have continued to squeak by thanks to elite pitching, the question has only grown louder: when will the bats wake up? The answer, for the most part, is whenever the triumvirate of Aaron Judge, Cody Bellinger, and Giancarlo Stanton recover (or, perhaps, last night). Bellinger and Stanton have both been working out […]
Yankees news: Can Luis García Jr. offer more defensive versatility?
New York Daily News | Gary Phillips: Luis García Jr. has adapted well to life in the Bronx, with a 124 wRC+ before Wednesday’s game and solid play at the cold corner. Can he give the Yankees a bit more defensive versatility, though? Cody Bellinger, Aaron Judge, and Giancarlo Stanton are all due back at […]
Yankees’ offense finally breaks through, clubs Mariners to win series
Man, it feels good to score runs. The Yankees have gone 18-10 in the last month, but you wouldn’t guess it by looking at the lineup. They’ve been carried by great pitching, and they got that from their bullpen tonight, but not the starter. At least they followed my perpetual advice — score 10 runs […]
New York Yankees vs. Seattle Mariners: Will Warren vs. Bryce Miller
The Yankees are doing a decent enough job putting wins on the board even if they’re not doing it with much dash. It took them until the seventh inning last night to push any runs across the board, but those four runs were enough to give the club the win over the Mariners. Now the […]
Duke of Steal: Ellis swipes way into Scranton/Wilkes-Barre record book
Duke Ellis took a lead off first base in the seventh inning of the Scranton/Wilkes-Barre RailRiders’ game against Rochester on August 6th at PNC Field. He broke for second and when the throw from Red Wings catcher Maxwell Romero Jr. was high, Ellis safely slid headfirst into the bag. It was Ellis’ 41st stolen base […]
How to win a Cy Young
We’re three-quarters of the way through the season, and while Drew Rasmussen and I really wanted the Yankees to trade for Reid Detmers at the deadline, there are two pitchers gunning for the AL Cy Young. New York’s Cam Schlittler has surpassed expectations for his sophomore season, and Dylan Cease has been just about the […]
The Yankees Birthday Series, presented by Pinstripe Alley
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 […]
