Yankees fall asleep against Reds, lose series
I want to be more annoyed about this game, but honestly the moment that it ended I didn’t really remember much about it. There were two moments the whole game — Ben Rice hit a home run to give the Yankees the lead, Tyler Stephenson hit a three-run shot to put the Reds ahead. I […]
New York Yankees vs. Cincinnati Reds: Elmer Rodríguez vs. Chase Burns
We were dazzled on Friday night, and disappointed yesterday. The Yankees, and certainly the readership, are hoping to be at least satisfied come Sunday afternoon, as the club looks to win yet another series, this time against the Reds. It’s not going to be easy — Chase Burns isn’t quite Cam Schlittler, but he is […]
Yankees Birthday of the Day: Eddie Lopat
The nature of baseball as a sport means that you need more than just a star or two to be a good team. Just look at the Mike Trout/Shohei Ohtani era Angels. Of course you need excellent players as well, but having solid players across the middle and backend of the roster is what turns […]
Yankees Rivalry Roundup: Nationals fend off Rays at the Trop
Not much went right for the Yankees during their 10-2 loss to the Reds yesterday. The defense was shoddy, Will Warren got rattled and gave up a game-breaking tank, and they made mistakes at both the plate and on the bases. In short, if you knew nothing about the game aside from the fact that […]
The right schedule at the right time for the Yankees
The New York Yankees, even with their current absences, are a formidable squad. It’s with that established that we can open ourselves to acknowledging some undeniable truths about who this team is, how it got here—and a particularly significant sequence of games that began during their road trip to end May with a couple of […]

Today on Pinstripe Alley – 6/21/26
The Yankees have won a few blowouts this week, and quite a few this year, so perhaps they were due to be on the receiving end of a rout. A close game early morphed into a laugher yesterday, with some shaky defense leading to a crushing three-run homer off the bat of Spencer Steer. It’s […]
Yankees news: Wells, Rodríguez return in roster shake-up
New York Post | Dan Martin: After missing the past couple of weeks with cervical headaches, Austin Wells is expected to be recalled for Sunday’s game. Manager Aaron Boone said he would “likely” be in the starting lineup his first game back. It’s been a lost season so far for the Yankees backstop, whose .533 […]
Yankees send down catcher J.C. Escarra; Austin Wells set to return
It’s roster move time, and ahead of Sunday’s series finale against the Reds, the Yankees have announced a couple of important ones with more on the way. We already covered here the movements on the pitching staff with Jake Bird going down to make room for Elmer Rodríguez, but there will be a change behind […]
Gerrit Cole’s start pushed back, Elmer Rodríguez to pitch Sunday with Jake Bird demoted
We don’t get an ace-off after all. With the Yankees trying to manage a pitching rotation that’s both played at its highest level and seen its share of injuries, Gerrit Cole will be pushed back a day and make his start with an additional day of rest on Monday in Detroit. The club is trying […]
Yankees bludgeoned as Warren melts down following fifth inning error
One of the biggest assets for a starting pitcher is to maintain composure when facing adversity, and that is not a skill that Will Warren has fully developed yet. Perhaps the biggest knock on the young pitcher is the way he lets innings spiral when something goes wrong, particularly when his defense makes an error […]
New York Yankees vs. Cincinnati Reds: Will Warren vs. Andrew Abbott
Cam Schlittler shoved on center stage in the series opener against the Reds, tallying a career-high 13 strikeouts in his six shutout innings. His start along with early home runs by Jazz Chisholm Jr. and Ben Rice carried the day as the Yankees opened the final series of a long home stand with a 5-0 […]
Does the Knicks’ championship run take pressure off the 2026 Yankees or add to it?
A week ago today, a long, city-wide nightmare finally came to an end. At 11:30 pm on June 13, 2026, the New York Knicks won the NBA Finals, securing their first title in 53 years. Thursday’s parade was a sight to behold. As I left New York City in the aftermath of the Knicks’ first-ever […]
Yankees Birthday of the Day: Kendrys Morales
Kendrys Morales, Yankees legend. Okay, that is a stretch for a player who appeared in only 19 games for the franchise, a number only slightly larger than the group that accompanied him when he escaped Cuba. However, the second part of that sentence is what makes his story legendary. Like many of his fellow countrymen […]
Yankees prospects: Oswaldo Cabrera’s six hits lead zany Scranton doubleheader split
Triple-A Scranton/Wilkes-Barre RailRiders: L, 8-9 (8) and W, 8-6 (7) at Columbus Clippers Game 1 C Austin Wells 0-4, BB, 3 K — no-contact day in this rehab game, as opposed to the two homers on Thursday2B Marco Luciano 0-4, BB, K3B Oswaldo Cabrera 4-5, HR, 2 RBI — great day for Waldo!RF Yanquiel Fernández […]
RailRiders’ series in Columbus is return to Yankees’ Triple-A roots
It has been “Old Home Week” for the Scranton/Wilkes-Barre RailRiders during their current series in Columbus against the Clippers. For 28 years, from 1979 to 2006, the New York Yankees had their Triple-A affiliate in Columbus and enjoyed a highly successful run. Previous notable Triple-A homes had included Syracuse, Richmond, Denver, and Newark, but if […]
Yankees Rivalry Roundup: Blue Jays obliterated at Wrigley
You just can’t come up with enough superlatives to describe Cam Schlittler. The flame throwing righty struck out a career-high 13 batters in the series opener against the Reds to widen his lead in the AL Cy Young race. His six scoreless innings and home runs by Jazz Chisholm Jr. and Ben Rice proved the […]
Today on Pinstripe Alley – 6/20/26
Fresh off another masterful performance last night, it’s still amazing to think about how there were 219 players selected in the 2021 MLB Draft before Cam Schlittler. The details will fade in memory. No, he was not remotely this kind of pitcher at Northeastern in the Colonial Athletic Association. But the Yankees’ scouts deserve credit […]
Yankees news: Jazz Chisholm Jr. says “no pain, no gain” after Thursday injury
The Athletic | Chris Kirschner ($): Jazz Chisholm Jr. had to exit Thursday’s game against the White Sox after fouling a ball into his groin, but he insists that he will continue not wearing a cup. He said fielding grounders is where you’d really want to wear some protection, but that he trusts his hands […]
Cam Schlittler strikes out career-high 13 Reds as Yankees win shutout
It was a game of ones, as one outstanding pitching performance and one inning’s worth of scoring helped the Yankees easily handle the Reds in a 5-0 win at home, their first shutout win this month. If you went out searching for a worst-case-scenario matchup for an offense against a specific starter, it’d be a […]
New York Yankees vs. Cincinnati Reds: Cam Schlittler vs. Rhett Lowder
The New York offense finally came up for air in the series finale against the White Sox, and it’s hard to even be too upset about it given how it had handled the White Sox in the previous two games, scoring double-digit runs in both of them. Now, they’ll take on the last-place Reds that […]

Remember to send in your questions for our weekly call by e-mail to pinstripealleyblog [at] gmail [dot] com. The idiot that said, “Harper is coming” asks: According to reports, the SF Giants are listening to offers on Matt Chapman, […]
The latest CBA proposal makes me increasingly convinced that MLB does not like baseball
By now most fans know that MLB has proposed a significant overhaul in the Rule 4, or domestic, draft. It would make high school players ineligible and college players eligible after the sophomore year instead of junior, reduce the draft overall from 20 rounds to 12, and cut the bonus budget by more than 30 […]
Yankees Sequence of the Week: Cam Schlittler (6/13)
The Yankees finally conquered one of their personal demons last weekend, winning a series at the Rogers Centre for the first time since September 2023. Principal to their success was the performance of the pitching staff, holding their hosts to just four runs across the final two games. Cam Schlittler was the catalyst for that […]
