(Syndicated from An A-Blog for A-Rod)
After what the team called a “scheduling error,” CC Sabathia threw his first bullpen session of the spring on Saturday, really testing out his left elbow for the first time since offseason surgery to remove bone chips. Sabathia said he felt good [...]
Alex Rodriguez‘s latest controversy, if nothing else, has served as a reminder that most mega contracts in baseball are bad ideas. The logical extension of this thought process is to list all the mega contracts the Yankees have, aside from A-Rod’s. Mark Teixeira‘s deal isn’t working out so well.
The conventional wisdom is that CC Sabathia had his worst season in pinstripes in 2012. That conventional wisdom is correct, but only because Sabathia gave the Yankees just 200 innings in 2012. That’s about 30 innings fewer than he gave the Bombers in each of his first three Yankee seasons. That drop off [...]
For the second consecutive year rain delayed the start of the Yankee postseason. The start of the Bombers’ 2011 ALDS was a greater debacle, with the teams actually beginning the game before delaying it a full day due to weather. Sunday night’s game between the Yankees and Orioles started over two hours late thanks to [...]
Before I go any further, I need to vent. On the road!? Seriously, the road?! After all the huffing and puffing about how important winning the division is under the new playoff format, what is the prize that awaits the division winners? A road trip! Baseball will never cease to amaze me, in a bad [...]

Big time players make big time plays in big time games. That’s a generic sports cliche that, despite my friends and I readily ignoring it when it was repeated to us over and over by our college dropout assistant coach [...]
Up until Friday night, CC Sabathia was in a rare slump. He hadn’t picked up a win in nearly a month, since August 24th, which is unacceptable at this point in the year. Considering the two DL stints, some members of the media questioned his health, and I think the legitimacy of [...]
The Yankees will remain in first place no matter what happens between the time I write this and when the team next plays on Tuesday. But with such a tight lead on the pole possession in the AL East, there is a real possibility that Baltimore will slip ahead and drop the Bombers into a [...]
Following the game on Saturday, Joel Sherman wanted to know the answer to this question so badly that he forgot his manners. You can watch the exchange here. The series of questioning, and what I thought was personally an inappropriate tone from Sherman, resulted in a heated confrontation in Girardi’s office later that [...]
Since 2009 the job of top pitcher on the Yankee staff has been taken. From that season through 2011 CC Sabathia has been everything the Yankees hoped for, one of those rare free-agent binges that works out perfectly. CC managed about 230 innings of pitching dominance each of those seasons, perhaps setting an [...]
