  The first pitch A Rod saw in the first inning in Baltimore promptly got deposited in the stands for a 3 run home run.That is something that has been missing from the Yanks offense.And CC Sabathia made it stand up as he pitched a complete game shutout...

• Yankee bats go quiet

  Posted on Saturday May 2nd, 2009 at 17:49 in johnny damon, phil hughes, cc sabathia

  30 year old rookie Matt Palmer spread a few hits around, and the Halos eventually got to CC in the 7th inning. The key hit seemed to be a single that dropped just in front of LF Johnny Damon. Making that catch may have shut them down altogether. The ...

• Yankees swept by Red Sox

  I'm feeling pretty down. To lose all 3 games was painful, to say the least. Sure, the Yankees have injuries, with their 3rd baseman, back up 3rd baseman, left fielder, right fielder, set up man, and one of their starters all are out.Sadly, the Sox wi...

  Andy Pettitte was strong and looked like the Andy of old as he held the Royals to one run in seven innings while striking out 6. The offense was led by Nick Swisher and Jorge Posada as the Yanks scored 4 runs. The Yankee 'pen continued to dominate as...

• Yankees lose home opener

  Posted on Tuesday April 7th, 2009 at 16:26 in wang, cc sabathia

  So, it looks like they aren't going to win the 162 games I had hoped for, nor will CC win every start. Oh well. It's a long season. CC was shaky, and had trouble getting his fastball over for strikes. The Yankee offense was good, putting up 5 runs, w...

  The Yankee starting staff has begun to come around as Pettitte, Joba, and Burnett have done really well, all virtually lights out performances. Wang has been spotty, but he usually does struggle a bit early in the season. CC will be starting tonight....

• A-Rod faces surgery

  Posted on Thursday March 5th, 2009 at 22:59 in a-rod, cc sabathia

  The Yankees are hoping A-Rod's injured hip can make it through the entire season. Cashman says it will need surgery and about 4 months to recover, so they are hoping to get to it in following the season.I hate when this happens, it seems these things...

  Posted on Wednesday December 24th, 2008 at 07:13 in manny ramirez, mark teixeira, aj burnett, cc sabathia

  Just as I predicted on December 19th, Mark Teixiera signed with the New York Yankees.Not one of the "experts" predicted it, and the Yankees denied it all the way. And, while the Yankees are spending like mad, it should be pointed out that every acqui...
