2013 was a weird year for the New York Yankees and their fans. Due to injuries, they never had their primary lineup in the field. However, they were still in the playoff hunt until the last week of the season which goes to show the heart of the players on this team and just how good a manager Joe Girardi actually is. The Yankees...
The biggest free agent pitcher this off-season hasn’t suited up for a Major League team yet, but the bidding war for Japanese right-hander Masahiro Tanaka officially began Wednesday when he touched down in Los Angeles. Tanaka will reportedly meet with up to 12 teams this week while in America including the Yankees, Dodgers, Angels,...
Derek Jeter and the New York Yankees agreed to tear up his 2014 player option (worth $9 million) and have agreed to a one-year deal worth $12 million instead.
You may be asking yourself, "why did the Yankees give Jeter a raise?" Jeter only played in 17 games last season due to several injuries and it wasn't a good year for him or...
Bronx Bombers. Five O'Clock Lightning. Murderer's Row. Whatever the moniker, the New York Yankees are a team that is synonymous with winning and financial might. With the exception of a brief period from 1964 to 1972, when the Yankees were run (into the ground) by CBS, the franchise has otherwise been owned by men who were every bit...
Joe Girardi probably already completed the most difficult task he would ever have to do in New York when he took over the helm of the New York Yankees from iconic manager, Joe Torre. However, this is New York, so the pressure and the expectations are always high.
In his first six seasons as manager of the Yankees, Girardi has done...
Time passes. There is no way of holding it back, or slowing it down. Try as we may, nothing can last forever. A glorious era in Yankees history has now come to a close.
Two of the Bronx' favorite sons said goodbye during the last week of the 2013 season. Andy Pettitte pitching a complete game gem in the last start of his...
Forget that the Yankees lost the game. Their postseason hopes are minimal at best, anyway. Forget that Andy Pettitte lost a game he clearly didn't deserve to lose. Yesterday was about watching two Yankee legends do what they do best. Rivera's tribute was done with class and dignity, just as you'd expect from an organization with such a...
Six games. With their postseason hopes on life support, it is very likely that this final home stand will be the last chance for Yankee fans to see Mariano Rivera pitch in a Major League Baseball game at Yankee Stadium.
It turns out, it will also be their last chance to see Andy Pettitte pitch at the Stadium as well. On Friday,...
The Yankees improbable postseason hopes stalled this weekend with a sweep at the hands of the rival Red Sox at Fenway Park. They entered the weekend series just one game back of the second postseason slot, but lost two games in the standings to the Wild Card leaders, Tampa and Texas. More importantly, the Yankees have seen both...
Welcome to another addition of “As the AROD Turns” only this time is has special guest stars in the names of Nelson Cruz, Johnny Peralta and 10 others.
