It’s been a topsy-turvy year in the A.L. East. After more than a decade of relative stability atop the division, the standings now read as if they were printed up-side down. With stalwarts like the Yankees and [...]
Phil Hughes is having a tremendous month of May. The 25-year-old, who left April a weak link in a weakening New York rotation, is 3-2 with a 3.45 ERA in five starts over the past three weeks. Hughes has a 4.1 strikeout to walk rate over the past month and batters are hitting just [...]
In the month of April, Phil Hughes posted a miserable 7.88 ERA, a 6.40 FIP, and allowed a .329/.395/.658 slash. For the impatient fans, the 25 year old’s career as a starter was over despite a gaudy 9.56 K/9. Since then, Hughes has gone 31.1 innings in May with a 3.45 ERA, a [...]
In 2010, Nick Swisher came into the year with a narrative in tow. After struggling in the 2009 playoffs, where he hit just .128/.255/.234/.489 with one home run, Swisher decided a new approach was needed. He started swinging at more pitches and going more for contact. Sure enough, the plan worked. He posted [...]
Who is the best Yankee pitcher at the moment? Over the last three weeks, the answer is probably C.C. Sabathia. However, Phil Hughes really isn’t all that far behind. Over his last 4 starts, Hughes has pitched 25 2/3 innings (6.4 per start) with an ERA of 2.80. During that time, he has 23 strikeouts [...]
Yanks and Royals in the Bronx. Hughes and Hochevar on the mound. Enjoy.
With the Yankees going through an awful teamwide slump, I thought it would be a good time to highlight the contributions of 2012′s biggest surprise, Raul Ibanez. As a 39 year-old veteran coming off of a subpar season, little was expected from Ibanez in 2012. Ibanez became part of the le Yankees’ DH platoon in [...]
Bad, the Yankee offense has been bad. Looking at the team’s offensive capabilities going back to the mid 90′s, there was no reason to think the 2012 Yankees would actually struggle scoring runs with one of the best lineups on paper. As much as I want to blame small sample size for the current issues, [...]

What was a very deep and dominant Yankee bullpen earlier in the season has quickly disentegrated into a struggling group of pitchers who seem to be in over their heads lately. They were able to tread water for a week [...]
Going into last night’s game with the Royals, Alex Rodriguez was slugging under .400. He raised it to .408 with his performance in the game, but that’s still absurdly low for a guy with over 600 career homers and an Iso of .263. Just about everything from Rodriguez is where it should be. [...]
