We’re seeing a bit of an arms race in the AL East. Sonny Gray is lining up behind Garrett Crochet in Boston, and the Blue Jays have inked both Dylan Cease and KBO MVP Cody Ponce. Meanwhile, three-fifths of the nominal Yankee starting rotation will start the year on the IL, with Gerrit Cole and […]
The Yankees invested a heavy amount of trade capital to build a super bullpen in 2025, dealing away a dozen players to bring in Devin Williams, Fernando Cruz, David Bednar, Camilo Doval, and Jake Bird between last winter and the trade deadline. Suffice to say their efforts did not pan out, the relief corps representing […]
We’re a few days into December now, meaning we’re only a few days away from the start of the Winter Meetings and the unofficial hotspot of the offseason. Little has slipped out of the Yankees’ camp in the early goings, and what little we do know of their plans doesn’t sound very exciting: the payroll […]
North Jersey | Pete Caldera: MLB’s Winter Meetings are coming up, usually the biggest time for business in the baseball offseason. The Yankees seem to want to stay around the $300 million payroll level while still having holes in the roster to fix, and also have very real questions around their top level prospects. Spencer […]
It’s an unfortunate and familiar story. Giancarlo Stanton misses a considerable amount of time with injury during the regular season. The frequency with which this has happened since the Yankees acquired him from the Marlins is distressing not only for the team, but for him. From the beginning of the 2019 season onward, Giancarlo has […]
There is a chance that at some point in 2025, the Yankees will have a truly excellent starting rotation. Max Fried and Carlos Rodón are coming off of great seasons, Cam Schlittler is looking to make more noise in his sophomore campaign, Gerrit Cole and Luis Gil hope to bounce back from injury-riddled seasons, while […]
Devin Williams’ contract with the Mets was still the buzz yesterday, as there weren’t many other notable moves unless you still believe in Alek Manoah (who signed with the Angels) or are a big believer in Cody Ponce’s KBO revival (he went to the Blue Jays). The Ponce one should be interesting though, as he […]
MLB.com | Brian Murphy: One of the biggest moves of the still-young offseason was former Yankees pitcher Sonny Gray getting traded by the Cardinals to the Red Sox. He had his introductory press conference with Boston, and he talked about his ill-fated time in the Bronx, admitting that New York was never a great fit […]
Maybe your first instinct when reading the title of this post will be the same as mine when first contemplating the idea of writing about the subject. Jo Adell is a young player who the Angels surely will want to keep hold of for their long-term—but, well, it isn’t quite so simple. Adell will be […]
There are few things more cruel in professional sports than a promising player getting injured. It’s part of the game, but it’s demoralizing for a multitude of reasons. While Clarke Schmidt doesn’t fit the billing of a burgeoning superstar or promising rookie that suffers a long-term injury, he was emerging as an above-average, consistent homegrown […]

The offseason is in full swing and the Winter Meetings are about to begin, so it’s time to take another look at the Yankees farm system and consider a new ranking of Baby Bombers on the rise within the organization. There was a lot of movement in 2025, as a few arms made huge strides […]
The bullpen for the New York Yankees certainly had its ups and downs through the 2025 regular season. When it came to the starting rotation, they performed about as well as manager Aaron Boone or any of the Yankees faithful could have asked for. They finished eighth in MLB in fWAR and fourth in ERA. […]
It looked like yesterday would be another quiet one as we lead into the Winter Meetings, but last night, the Mets poached a Yankee again, Devin Williams becoming the latest player to switch from the Bronx to Queens. Despite struggling mightily for most of the 2025 season, Williams secured a solid three-year, $51-million to join […]
The Mets agreed to a three-year deal with Devin Williams Monday, with his salary expected to exceed $50 million. The Athletic’s Will Sammon was the first to report the contract, with ESPN’s Jeff Passan adding the financial terms. After emerging as one of the sport’s elite relievers during six years in Milwaukee, the right-hander spent […]
Seeing any prospect come up and do well is extremely fun, but there’s something different when it’s a young starting pitcher. A pitcher getting called up and impressing has you dreaming that your team has found someone who could take the ball in key games and playoff series openers and not only give your team […]
The New York Yankees undoubtedly have positions in desperate need of an upgrade over the course of the long offseason. That being said, they also have other spots where they may not necessarily need an upgrade, but it certainly wouldn’t hurt to get one. The man behind the plate calling the shots is one of […]
In a vacuum, ignoring injury, the Yankees’ starting rotation for 2026 looks outstanding. Gerrit Cole, Max Fried, Carlos Rodón, Cam Schlittler, Luis Gil, and Will Warren all return, and the Yanks just recently re-signed Ryan Yarbrough. That’s six legitimate starting pitchers and a guy who was pretty successful as a spot starter/swingman for New York […]
Usually, we’ll do some kind of preamble here with brief thoughts on baseball activity from the previous day. But boy, the MLB offseason was as quiet as a day in late January. Maybe everyone was just anxious for December and today will offer more. Today on the site, Kevin will consider Michael King as a […]
MLB Trade Rumors | Charlie Wright: The Yankees have a decision to make with their outfield prospects, once they’re done making a decision about their major-league outfield. Jasson Domínguez and Spencer Jones are already going to be hard-pressed to both find time in the big leagues with only one spot open in the outfield at […]
It’s Sunday, and you know what that means — it’s time for our weekly social media roundup! It was a busy week in New York City, as the Macy’s Thanksgiving Day parade took over the city on Thursday, the New York Knicks’ win over the Bucks dominated headlines on Friday, and Jaxson Dart cleared concussion […]
Generally, if you allow double-digit hits in a game as a pitcher, you and your team probably aren’t going to win that game. If you then add in eight walks to the equation, your odds are going to take an even greater dip. These days, it’s probably not even possible for a pitcher to put […]
We’ve reached the end of November and of Thanksgiving week, which means that the MLB offseason should be about to give us some real action. The winter meetings will begin at the end of next weekend, and with them there will be a steady drumbeat of rumors and actual moves. To be fair, we’ve already […]
MLB Trade Rumors | Mark Polishuk: The Yankees have yet to make their first big splash of free agency, but it appears that Kyle Tucker and Cody Bellinger have emerged as their most prominent targets. If a recent report from Jon Heyman is to believed, there is a clear hierarchy of prioritization between the two […]
The Yankees have a delicate task this offseason to upgrade the offense if they are indeed serious about improving on 2025’s disappointing finish. With multiple positions to address, potentially limited funds to do so and a lack of true difference makers outside of Kyle Tucker, the front office might have to get creative in their […]
