Tonight, the Yankees lost 8-6 to the Rays in what could have been a huge come from behind win.
The Start
It was Hiroki Kuroda‘s first start with the Yankees tonight, and it all started it off with your routine groundball to shortstop, which was routinely dropped by perennial anti-Gold glove winner [...]
Yesterday, right after their game against the Mets, the Yankees traded minor league reliever George Kontos to the Giants for backup catcher Chris Stewart. Upon doing this, the Yankees demoted their ebullient backup backstop Francisco Cervelli to AAA to start the year. While this is certainly a [...]
Freddy Garcia started the final spring training game today, going an unimpressive 4.2 innings, giving up 4 hits, 3 runs (all 3 off an Ike Davis homerun), 2 walks, and earning 4 strikeouts. The pitching performance we were eager to watch was Andy Pettitte, who pitched as well [...]
Yesterday afternoon at around 3, Andrew Marchand of ESPN New York let loose a flurry of tweets , letting us know that the Yankees and catcher Russell Martin are working on a possible contract extension. Marchand’s full story on [...]
There’s big news in the land of Yankee catchers. Let’s start with the small stuff…
So, Francisco Cervelli hit a massive home run last night against John Lackey and the Red Sox. It didn’t just go off the field of play, it went out of the stadium. Frankie Blue Eyes, he [...]
Russell Martin sat with a back injury last night. If Martin cannot catch back-to-back days and his back hasn’t responded overwhelmingly well to treatments, then he needs to be laced on the 15-day disabled list. If he goes on the 15-day disabled list, the Yankees have to call up Jesus Montero. [...]
This past December, I wrote a post titled “Francisco Cervelli, Backup Catcher: No More, No Less” about the Yankees’ surprisingly controversial backup catcher. In it, I defended him as a perfectly solid backup catcher, stating:
Cervelli finished 27th (min. 120 PA’s) among all catchers in wRC+ last season (94), and was 28th in WAR (min. [...]
It’s Mother’s Day so I’ll keep this recap brief. For those of you who are interested in the extra-condensed version, here it is: What a bizarre Yankee victory.
This one had lots of everything. Twelve runs. Fifteen hits. Four errors. One Texas Catcher tossed in the eighth inning. A bunch of lousy officiating calls. [...]
Yes ladies and gentlemen, at long last the Yankee fan heart throb from Valencia, Venezuela has returned, one Mr. Francisco Cervelli. We’ve had to put up with Russell Martin hitting all those doubles and HRs at the bottom of the order for the past month, but now every 3 innings those of [...]
There are two things a bench has to do well in the American League: fill in for resting/day-to-day regulars, and provide an advantage in a narrow band of situations in the middle of games. The Yankees are going into this season with Eric Chavez, Eduardo Nunez, Andruw Jones, and [...]
