The Yankees take on two of their own products today, as they’ll face Jesus Montero in the lineup and on the mound. After a win against last night, the Yankees will look to take the series this afternoon before ‘s [...]

By now, I assume most every Yankees fan has heard what may sadly be the best news of the past few weeks – Eduardo Nunez has been to make room for Eric Chavez. Per Marc Carig, this was done as a means to allow the toolsy defender an opportunity to [...]

Contrary to my expectations, there did not seem to be an uproar with respect to David Robertson’s “closer mentality,” which is a veritable breath of fresh air in a season that has been full of stiflingly bothersome news and events. It seems as if many recognize that one game is far from demonstrative of a [...]

After a nail-biting 5-3 victory last night that saw David Robertson work out of a 9th-inning jam, the Yankees go back to work tonight against the division-leading Tampa Bay Rays.  David Phelps will take the hill for the Yankees, making his second career start.  It may also be his last start for a little while, [...]

Baseball America is in the business of prognostication, or, perhaps more accurately, semi-scientific soothsaying (which is a fine explanation of ‘SSS’ to those you’d like to mock).
