The Yankees wrapped up a four-game set with a split series on Thursday, dropping a game that spiraled out of control late and ended up an ugly 11-4 loss. Truth be told, the series ended in a split was extremely fortunate compared to how well the Yankees played this week, as their two wins were […]
New York Daily News | Gary Phillips: The day after finding out Gerrit Cole is headed to Double-A to begin his rehab assignment, we got some details. Cole’s pitch count is expected to be in the mid-40s and the Yankees plan to build him to a “higher threshold” during his rehab then be conservative with […]
Some losses are harder than others and some splits feel more like a loss than a tie. For the Yankees on Thursday afternoon, a series filled with emotional swings finally tipped the wrong way, as a game that felt within reach for much of the afternoon slipped into a lopsided loss by the end. After […]
After Monday night’s heavyweight fight, Tuesday’s dud, and Wednesday’s pull-a-“W”-out-of-the-hat magic trick, this wacky and often less-than-fun series with the Angels wraps up this afternoon. The Yankees get to hand the ball to their ace, Max Fried, while the Angels appear ready to take the opener approach in this getaway game. Both of New York’s […]
Last week, Yankees right-hander Luis Gil made his season debut against the Tampa Bay Rays, allowing three runs in four innings, with three hits, three walks, and just two strikeouts. He was undoubtedly shaky despite limiting the damage somewhat. On Wednesday, he made his second start, and even though there were some improvements, the results […]
The Yankees have played with fire this week with the Angels, twice heading to the bottom of the ninth trailing and twice able to find a way to win. Good thing, too, since the AL East, and the American League more broadly, has tightened up quite a bit after the Yankees’ fast 8-2 start. It […]
If I asked you to name Hall of Famers who have played for the Yankees, you would probably list the likes of Babe Ruth, Mickey Mantle, Derek Jeter and the other big names and legends from the franchise’s history. There are quite a few of people on that list who you can pick from who […]
Monday night’s zany 11-10 walk-off win over the Angels will be remembered for the offensive heroics of both lineups far more than any pitching performance. However, there was a sequence from Will Warren right before his start got turned on its head that caught my eye. So, I’d like to share what I felt was […]

The modern Yankees are known at this point for their midseason slumps, but they also deserve credit for the late-season surges that those slumps necessitate. Last year, after going 25-27 through June and July, the club closed the season on an MLB-best 30-11 run. That run was in part thanks to a midseason makeover that […]
SNY | Chelsea Janes: For the first time since the 2025 postseason, Yankees shortstop Anthony Volpe played a competitive baseball game. It happened to be with the Yanks’ Double-A affiliate, the Somerset Patriots, as he starts his rehab assignment after offseason labrum surgery. He said he felt great and called it a big milestone. Regarding […]
As corny as it sounds, a lot can happen before that 27th out, and what felt like it would’ve been yet another deflating loss—following a dangerous trend early on in 2026—turned into one of the more thrilling wins for the Yankees this season as they walked off the Angels at home, 5-4, on a José […]
A pitching staff off to a marvelous start in 2026, the Yankees have had more than their fair share of issues against the Angels in this four-game set at home. It’ll be up to Luis Gil to right the ship. The right-hander missed out on a spot in the Opening Day rotation as the Yanks […]
The Yankees’ bullpen started the year on fire, protecting leads left and right and enjoying a few breakout performances from unexpected pitchers — or at least that’s what it looked like. Now, a few weeks into the season, the unit has looked leaky and inconsistent in recent games. This has caused the Yanks to make […]
Crowds flocked to see the Triple-A Scranton/Wilkes-Barre RailRiders during their first home series of the season last week at PNC Field in northeastern Pennsylvania. Total attendance for five dates was 17,043, the team’s largest Opening Week attendance since 2019. Fans saw the RailRiders split the six-game series with the Durham Bulls. In the opener, the […]
Long before the Yankees became the Yankees of Ruth, Gehrig, October mythology, and even Gerrit, Leonard Leslie “King” Cole (not to be confused with Nat) was one of the franchise’s most intriguing early arms. For a season, he looked like the kind of pitcher who could help stabilize a club still searching for its identity. […]
Monday night’s game against the Angels had a chance to be the most demoralizing loss of the Yankees’ season, even amid a five-game losing streak that included getting one-hit by the A’s and a 17-inning stretch where they failed to score. The offense had rightly come under fire for failing to uphold their end of […]
Welp, just when it seemed like the Yankees bats were waking up with their 11-10 walk-off win in the series opener against the Angels, they immediately went back to sleep scoring just one run in a listless middle-game loss. It never helps when your starting pitcher gives up back-to-back-to-back home runs in the first inning, […]
Recency bias can be a heck of a thing, and a concept that may not serve Yankees righty Will Warren all that well. In his most recent outing on Monday against a forgettable Angels lineup, Warren failed to escape the fourth inning, and although they were all unearned, Los Angeles plated four runs under his […]

The Yankees have made four turns through their main quartet of starting pitchers that were rostered for Opening Day now, with Luis Gil set to make his second start in the full rotation later tonight. The arms have done a good job dealing through the first month or so of the season, with little hiccups […]
FanGraphs | Dan Szymborski: An 8-2 start had the Yankees in the driver’s seat early in the AL East, but a 1-5 run after that has helped settle down the division odds. Now, while the Yanks still boast the best odds of any team in the East to make the playoffs, they’re smack dab in […]
Monday night was a kind of heavyweight prize fight, with each team trading blow after blow after big home run. Tonight was much more like a heavyweight prize fighter fighting me, with the Angels playing the former role and battering the Yankees all over their home ballpark. LA took off almost immediately, hitting the same […]
Last night was one of the more entertaining baseball games you’ll ever see, but I’d just as soon take a clean little 5-1 win in game two of this four-game set with the Angels. While the Yankees are looking to continue the momentum from yesterday, Ryan Weathers is looking to continue a little personal momentum, […]
The pitching wasn’t pretty, but the Yankees survived an 11-10 slugfest with the Los Angeles Angels on Monday night in the opener of their four-game set. They did, however, decide that they needed relief reinforcements before they played another game. Immediately after the marathon on Monday, the Yanks demoted right-handed pitcher Jake Bird to Triple-A […]
