There are two things a bench has to do well in the American League: fill in for resting/day-to-day regulars, and provide an advantage in a narrow band of situations in the middle of games. The Yankees are going into this season with , Eduardo Nunez, , and [...]
Anthony McCarron fills us in on the purported competition between Jesus Montero and Austin Romine for the backup catcher spot:
Girardi said Austin Romine is still competing with Jesus Montero for the backup catcher’s job, at least while recovers. Both [...]
Russell Martin is by all accounts a fine defensive catcher. Russell Martin is healthy, recently declaring the knee he had surgery on in the off season to no longer be an issue. So what the heck happened yesterday?
In case you missed it, on Friday afternoon Russell Martin had what Toronto Star columnist Richard Griffin [...]
It’s been two days since Yankee backup catcher Francisco Cervelli fouled a pitch off his left foot. The initial results of the CT scan were negative, but a follow up MRI was inconclusive, leading the Yanks to believe he may have a hairline fracture. The injury could put Frankie on the shelf for up to [...]
One area of sabermetric analysis that is still very much in its “rough draft” stage is the effort to measure defense. Even popular statistics such as UZR have plenty of detractors, and it seems that little agreement will be reached on this issue until Field f/x provides more accurate data to build statistics [...]
There were two articles in the New York Daily News yesterday that involved catching, and more specifically, Jesus Montero.

The Yankees are on the cusp of signing veteran outfielder Andruw Jones to be the team’s first OF off of the bench. They signed Russell Martin to be the starting catcher for now, with Francisco Cervelli as the back up, and Jesus Montero on the way up. Jorge Posada will be the primary DH and [...]
A new year is upon us and soon, a new baseball season will be upon us. We’re going to have expectations with certain players, as we always do. We have to think of realistic expectations, though. For this post, I’m going to look at each player still on the Yankees from the 2010 team, examine [...]

One Yankees player who inspires some strong emotions among members of the fanbase is Francisco Cervelli. He started 2010 very hot, with a .387 wOBA in April fooling some into believing that he was an everyday player. With Jorge Posada’s defense continuing to deteriorate, a rapidly growing [...]
