Yankees potential trade partner: New York Mets

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 […]

How will Gerrit Cole fare tonight for Yankees against Rays?

There’s no getting around how grisly the Yankees’ offense is right now, outside of a resurgent Ben Rice. They struck out 17 times for the second night in a row and set a team record with 34 K’s across a two-game span. Yikes! Even though there were more hits than the lineup had come by […]

Yankees news: Ben Rice and dad to participate in Home Run Derby

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 […]

Yankees rack up 17 more strikeouts, Rays pummel Will Warren to even series

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 […]

New York Yankees @ Tampa Bay Rays: Will Warren vs. Ian Seymour

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 […]

Yankees At-Bat of the Week: Trent Grisham (7/3)

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 […]

VOTE: How will the Yankees finish the regular season?

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. Sign up here to participate in the weekly emailed surveys. The New York Yankees have been going through it in recent weeks. They were sharp […]

Yankees prospects: Week 15 minor league recap

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 […]

Yankees slugger Ben Rice joins the Home Run Derby

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 […]

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 […]

Yankees Birthday of the Day: George Moriarty

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 […]

Yankees Potential Trade Partner: Detroit Tigers

Following back-to-back postseason appearances in 2024 and ‘25, the 2026 season has not begun the way the Detroit Tigers likely had hoped. Now more than halfway through the season, they sit ten games below .500, at 40-50. In one of the more gettable divisions in baseball, Detroit currently sits 7.5 games out of the American […]

Yankees prospects: Bats flounder as Rookie ball Yanks swept on the day

Triple-A Scranton/Wilkes-Barre RailRiders: Offday Double-A Somerset Patriots: Offday High-A Hudson Valley Renegades: Offday — though it wasn’t without incident, as 2025 third-round pick Kaeden Kent went on the seven-day IL with an undisclosed injury Low-A Tampa Tarpons: Offday Florida Complex League Yankees: L, 9-5 vs. FCL Blue Jays 3B Richard Matic 2-5, 2B, K, 2 SBRF Wilberson De Pena 1-5, […]

How nervous are you about the Yankees’ AL East chances?

After seemingly holding off the June swoon during the first couple of weeks of Aaron Judge’s absence, the Yankees succumbed in full, losing nine of ten games while their offense completely went to sleep. Their standing in the division, which looked strong just a few weeks ago, New York leading by four games, has slipped, […]

Yankees news: Jazz plays on after injury scare

MLB.com | Bill Ladson: The Yankees dodged a bullet on the injury front Monday, as Jazz Chisholm Jr. drew the start at second base. Chisholm left Sunday’s game with discomfort in his right big toe, but x-rays came back negative. The 28-year-old, who called the test results a “huge relief,” has been dealing with pain […]

Cam Schlittler dazzles, leads Yankees to win over Rays

Baseball is beautiful, but more importantly it is extremely weird. With how poorly the Yankees have played over the last fortnight, if I had told you they would only manage three hits in Monday’s series opener with the Rays, many of you would have skipped tomorrow’s game out of disgust. They did only get three […]

New York Yankees @ Tampa Bay Rays: Cam Schlittler vs. Griffin Jax

I hate playing the Rays at the best of times, and doubly so when we have to watch games at the Trop. That this series, a four-game set with Tampa enjoying a four-game lead in the AL East, is of outsized importance for the Yankees’ playoff trajectory and is also coming at a time the […]

Ask Pinstripe Alley: Yankees mailbag questions request

It’s rare that a make-or-break series can line up in early July, but it sure feels like the Yankees are there right now. After flipping a four-game lead in the division to a four-game deficit in the span of little more than a week, New York has a golden opportunity in front of themselves to […]

Why aren’t the Yankees walking anymore?

The last two weeks have been downright depressing in Yankeeland; that much is obvious. Pretty much every facet of the game has been agonizing to watch, and even though several of these games have been winnable towards the end, only one of them have ended in the win column over the last 10 games. While […]

Yankees Potential Trade Partner: San Francisco Giants

The Giants should be damn happy they play in the same division as the Rockies. If it weren’t for the best-run front office of 2004, San Francisco would be in an even worse spot than their current .420 winning percentage, but regardless look to be sellers at the trade deadline. I’m of the opinion that […]

Yankees Birthday of the Day: Willie Randolph

When you think about the people who helped define the New York Yankees, there is a long list of names worthy of respect. The organization is filled with all-time great players, managers, scouts, and executives whose legends have never faded. A little farther down that list is another name. Never the traditional statistical darling chasing […]

Yankees Rivalry Roundup: Houston takes the series from Tampa

The Yankees have done an excellent job of sucking all the fun from baseball the past two weeks. It feels like an entire June Swoon’s worth of misery has been stuffed into the past 10 days. Unfortunately, I am extremely skeptical we are out of the woods. The situation could be more dire, however. Thankfully, […]
