Early in the season, when Derek Jeter was first getting off to his hot start, I was skeptical that his strong performance would last. At the time the analysis seemed reasonable. Derek hasn’t put together a solid season since 2009 and the Yankees had faced an improbably high number of lefties. Derek [...]
With the MLB draft upcoming, I thought this would be a good time to think a bit about the uncertainty of the draft, and how so many other factors come into play other than just the player’s talent. In particular, I wanted to focus on 2 interesting years, 1992 and 2009, to see how wonderful [...]
It seems like just yesterday that we discussed how Derek Jeter was too old to hit fastballs, and I don’t think that premature assessment could have been any more inaccurate. While the Captain has gone about dismissing these rumors with some unthinkable numbers over the last year, the pessimists have turned their eye [...]
Derek Jeter is hitting .400/.440/.590 on May 2nd. That alone is pretty insane. Its even crazier because Jeter is 38 years old and a shortstop. Few people would fault Jeter for slowly fading into oblivion as he caps off a career as one of the best shortstops ever to play the game. But instead, he’s [...]

The fun part about small sample sizes is the room for interpretation they leave when analyzing a player’s numbers and trying to identify what he’s doing right or wrong. It’s pretty easy to look at a full season’s worth of [...]
Last week when Derek Jeter was batting .361/.395/.528 I hypothesized that his hot start wouldn’t last, that it was a mirage. My logic was simple. Jeter was crushing left handed pitching to the totally unsustainable tune of a .617 wOBA. Against righties, however, his wOBA was an awful .272. Given that most [...]
So far this season Derek Jeter is looking like a young man again. Through eight games he’s batting .361/.395/.528, good for a .386 wOBA. He certainly won’t maintain this pace, but after getting off to a horribly slow start last season it’s nice to see the Captain doing some damage in April. The [...]
The Yankees didn’t play today, but all 4 of their affiliates did.
Manny Banuelos took the mound against Buffalo today, and although he was able to limit the damage, the young lefty struggled in his second straight start. In 2.0 innings he threw 74 pitches and only 36 for strikes, giving up 3 [...]

A more appropriate title for this post might have been “The 5 Most Important Yankees For 2012 Besides the Obvious Choices.” We can all agree that CC is important because he’s the ace of the staff and if he went [...]
Back in October, I wrote an article on the possibilities for the 2012 lineup. I enjoy writing posts like that, but that one was probably the most negatively received piece I’ve written since I started writing on the Internet. So what am I going to do? Revisit it, of course. The [...]
