The Yankees are a walking time bomb right
now. It’s not because their future is in any
sort of danger, or because the team could change locations or ownership. In fact, with youthful owners compared to their father, with a manager who has won it all recently, and with a new stadium, the ...

This is the worst time of the year
to be a baseball fan. The season is long
enough over where you miss actual games, if your team won the World Series, the DVD isn't out yet and you can't inject yourself with baseball nicotine by watching it 47 times in a row, and the hot stove is nothing more ...

If the Yankees' plan is to get younger
and compete for years on end, there are only
two real blockbuster deals I would entertain. Trade for Felix Hernandez (who has often been mentioned with the Red Sox but never the Yankees) or trade for Curtis Granderson (who is said to be available from the ...

When you're a defending champion and you're also
the most affluent franchise in the game, rumors will
run rampant around a team. The Yankees will be linked to every player involved in any trade or as a Free Agent regardless of if New York has any interest whatsoever or if the deal would make ...

The report made little sense when it was
first released on multiple web sites, and based on
what Theo Epstein said at the GM meetings, it is not going to happen. Hideki Matsui will not become a member of the Boston Red Sox. Matsui has undoubtedly had a successful major league career. Add the ...

Many seem to think John Lackey would be
a fit in the Bronx but I don't see
that happening. Contrary to popular belief, the Yankees do not sign the best players from every team every off season, and before last year mostly concentrated on maintaining their own. I think this off-season will be ...

I heard there are signs the economy is
recovering in New York City, especially after New Yorkers
bought an election and a World Series title (this is courtesy of the David Letterman Show). Did you read where Hideki Matsui's bat was sent for display at the Baseball Hall of Fame, along with ...

It's been about a week since the Yankees
were crowned champions and I'm still floating on a
cloud of satisfaction. I'm so content right now this is the first day I've given a thought to what I would do to defend this feeling for next year. Brian Cashman has at least similar sentiments as he has ...

If you were looking for anything about a
player's reaction towards winning a championship, the main focus
had to be on Alex Rodriguez. This is a man who didn't win for 14 seasons, on three different teams, as the best player in the game. And that doesn't even begin to tell the story. A-Rod is ...

If this was his last night in pinstripes,
Hideki Matsui had one of the most memorable careers
we will almost definitely overlook. His last moments could have come during the same game as Andy Pettitte and Johnny Damon. One is a decorated hero of postseason history and a staple of the old guard ...

When your favorite sports team wins a championship
I think it's important to document every single moment
of that championship. As a writer, I'm trying to document all of my emotions at the time. One moment which really sticks out came with one out in the top of the ninth. I received a phone ...

It's kind of funny when you mention a
ticker tape parade to a non-New Yorker. Most of
them have never heard of one. When you try to explain it's like any other parade but businesses dump garbage on top of the floats, it's even more confusing. But alas, that is a lot of the beauty in a ticker ...

It took all of my high school and
college years, then it took an additional baseball season,
but the Yankees are once again World Champions. There is too much to say about 2009, it was everything 2008 wasn't and it started and ended like a movie script. As fans we had good vibes when Joe ...

If you were looking for the theatrics and

teams meeting in the ultimate test of talent, tonight exemplified those sentiments in a nine inning game. With the Yankees up 2-1 in the series, it was ace, CC Sabathia against the clear-cut Phillies' ...

If you scoured any message boards, talked to
anyone outside the New York area or listened to
some experts, the Yankees would have to pull off a near impossible feat to win in Philadelphia. When you come to the Bronx, the site of the best home field advantage all season long, it’s difficult to ...

Yankees fans feel when CC Sabathia takes the
mound, they can expect dominance in this postseason. They’re
also aware (as their opponents should be as well) when Andy Pettitte pitches, he’s going to give them a solid effort when October rolls around; much like he has in all of 2009. ...

Last night the Phillies outplayed the Yankees in
almost every facet of the game. Their bullpen was
better because it didn't pitch and the Yankees' 'pen gave up three runs. The defense was better because Cliff Lee was pitching and made some nifty plays...That's also the same reason the starting ...
