Despite Brian Cashman’s recent admission, that the bullpen is not an “area of obvious need,” today Buster Olney (ESPN) writes that the Yankees “No. 1 area of focus, beyond the Damon/Matsui realm: their bullpen. They will look for two relievers, in all likelihood.” This is a strange comment, as the team’s second [...]
According to Frankie Piliere (FanHouse), the Aroldis Chapman Sweepstakes is an expensive one. Therefore, most mid-market teams will bow out of the proceedings, leaving the Red Sox and Yankees to battle it out for Chapman’s prized left arm. The situation seems pretty simple to me if this is the case, though. The Yankees [...]
In 2009, at the tender age of 35, Derek Jeter, the Yankees’ all-time hits leader, produced a triple slash line of .334/.406/.465, with 18 home runs, 66 runs batted in and 30 stolen bases. In addition, his wOBA sat at .390, which was the best at his position in the American League and [...]
From Joel Sherman (NY Post):
In a cost-cutting frame of mind, the Tigers have let teams now that Curtis Granderson could be had for the right package, an NL executive told The Post.Granderson would be attractive to many teams, with the Yankees near the top of the list. They have long searched for [...]
Well, not really, but John Harper (Daily News) seems to think so:
Jorge Posada’s defense is an issue that’s not going away, especially as he turns 39 next year. Joe Girardi’s willingness to let Jose Molina catch A.J. Burnett in the playoffs was an indication of his feelings about the importance of defense [...]
According to Jose Arangure Jr. (ESPN), while attending yesterday’s game, Aroldis Chapman spoke with a few Yankees officials, including GM Brian Cashman. Arangure characterizes the meeting as a positive one, with “good conversations” between to the two parties. Hopefully, after Andy Pettitte notched his 16th postseason win, Aroldis was left dreaming of what could [...]
Not that it’s surprising, but, according to Jon Heyman (via Twitter), the Yankees are “leaning toward rotation of 1 thru 7: CC, AJ, Pettitte, CC, AJ, Pettitte, CC.” If this is the rotation the Yankees decide to use, then they’ll be pitching CC Sabathia on 3 days rest twice (Game 4 and 7), A.J. [...]
From Brittany Ghiroli (MLB):
Hughes has allowed nine hits in 4 2/3 innings, posting a 5.79 ERA that pitching coach Dave Eiland says is largely the result of an old mechanical problem resurfacing.”[It's] just a minor adjustment and he knows it,” Eiland said prior to the team’s optional workout on Friday afternoon. “It’s [...]
On Wednesday, Jorge Arangure Jr. reported that Aroldis Chapman, the prized Cuban prospect with serious stuff and a golden left arm, had arrived in New York to meet with officials from a number of Major League organizations, including the hated Red Sox and the beloved Yankees. However, on Friday, Arangure noted that Chapman’s [...]
In Game 2 against the Angels, for the first 4 innings, A.J. Burnett was dominant. However, in the 5th frame, the wheels came off and the bad Burnett arrived, as he allowed 2 hits, hit a batter, walked a batter, and gave up a run on a wild pitch (in that order). He [...]
