Yankee attendance is down. Even though attendance is usually low in early April, mostly due to weather, per-game attendance is at its lowest levels since the new Stadium opened. (Hat Tip RAB)
If the trend continues, a lot of people will probably start to offer explanations for why Yankee Stadium attendance [...]
On Tuesday and Wednesday, TYU will be running four guest posts from four excellent writers. The third comes from Mark Allen, who some of you might recognize from twitter as @markelderallen. He looked at the current economic system in baseball, and the Yankees’ place within it. It is an entertaining read that I am sure [...]
When the Yankees signed Chan-Ho Park this morning, those that were cynical about the Yankees budget took the opportunity to declare the budget a sham. As Joel Sherman explains, this is simply not the case:

From Pete Abe’s Mailbag:
Ralph writes: Everyone has their own breaking point. I’ve been accepting of all the changes at the Stadium this year. My breaking point came with every strikeout getting a P.C. Richard’s whistle over the loudspeaker and every stolen base getting a “Gotta Go to Mo’s.”
Answer: I’m with [...]
I am going to say something that may be against the current zeitgeit and probably will garner negative feedback, but I cannot hold my tongue any longer. The sense of entitlement that Yankees fans have shown this spring regarding the new stadium is befuddling and contrary to the very basic tenets upon which our countries [...]
While most of the feedback from fans and media members about the new Yankee Stadium has been overwhelmingly positive, a few writers found some items that bothered them about the new place. In the interest of full disclosure, I do have to admit that I have not yet been in the Stadium, so it is [...]
