I’ll probably cover 120 or so games this
season. But I also plan on attending at least
four or five as fan. It’s fun to watch a game and not have to worry about coming up with a story afterward. There are few things better than watching ...
YES has a new show called YESterdays. It’s
a look back at a person’s life with assorted
special guests. The show on Alex Rodriguez will be premiering on Wednesday after the Indians-Yankees game at approximately 11 p.m. The folks at YES ...
Brian Cashman made an appearance at Fenway Park
today for the annual Hot Stove/Cool Music Roundtable. It’s
a fundraiser for Theo Epstein’s charitable foundation. For the first time in public, Cashman admitted what has become ...
Mike Mussina (left hamstring) and Carl Pavano (right
forearm) were placed on the disabled list. RHP Chris
Britton arrived this morning. The team will play a man short today. The team has not decided who will start on Tuesday but Class AA LHP ...
Joe Girardi said just a few minutes ago
that RHP Joba Chamberlain would open the season in
the bullpen. He left open the possibility that Chamberlain will move into the rotation later this season. “His future will be as a starter,” ...
Much like the Yankees, the New York media
is a total disgrace. Our long winning streak against
the Boston media came to an end this morning as we were beaten 14-7 at Fenway Park. It was our first loss since 2001. We were up 4-0 after ...
We’ve had a lot of fun with the
reader Q&A feature on the blog but this one
is special. We put the word out for questions for Brian Cashman last week and a record 512 e-mails came into blog headquarters from around the world. I ...
The Yankees tonight added Morgan Ensberg to the
40-man roster. He will make $1.75 million. He has
no options, so this mean that Ensberg is going to make the team. Now that he knows his status, Ensberg said his next move would be to get a new ...
Carl Pavano is in camp. He has to
be because he’s on the 40-man roster. The Yankees
asked him to accept a payoff on the final year of his deal then take a minor-league contract and he refused. Pavano had surgery last June and almost certainly ...
Calling all Va. Tech co-eds ...
The Yankees need a catcher. Jose Molina strained
his left hamstring in the fourth inning, which is
why he had to leave the game in the eighth. “He sucked it up for us,” manager Joe Girardi said. It’s uncertain what the ...
In what was a bad day for the
Scott Boras Corporation, Alex Rodriguez went to the Yankees
directly and apparently has all but finalized a 10-year, $275 million deal. It took 32 years and nationwide scorn but it seems A-Rod is finally his own man. ...
By the time 2008 rolls around, the Johan
Santana Rumor Mill will get cranked up again. The
latest bit of speculation is that Minnesota would accept a package of Phil Hughes, Melky Cabrera and Jeff Marquez for their lefty ace. I’m sure that ...
On Friday, Travis from Yankees, Etc. wrote a
guest post for this blog about how many innings
Joba Chamberlain, Phil Hughes and Ian Kennedy could give the Yankees. Will Carroll of Baseball Prospectus was reading and asked if he could give his views ...
This is a photograph of an ice cream
freezer outside the visitors clubhouse at Camden Yards wrapped
up in a blanket so nobody will steal the treats inside. Why is it outside the visitors clubhouse? Because Joe Girardi wants it that way. The ...
Phil Hughes is already down in Tampa working
out. He also set up his own weblog. It’s
brand new but he has two posts up and we’re told there will be more on the way. We’re pleased to say that Phil linked to this blog, so ...
Spent some time with Ian Kennedy this morning
and he was telling me about his house in
Henderson, Nev., right outside of Las Vegas. Jason Giambi lives in Las Vegas, so I asked IPK whether he had hung out with the Big G this winter. Turns out he ...
Here we are at Al Lang Field for
the Yankees vs. the Devil Rays. It’s 71 degrees
and there’s a sellout crowd on hand. I have three stories to write (Andy Pettitte, Billy Crystal and a notebook) but I’ll update this post from time ...
Peter Abraham: Joe Girardi is embarrassed by Shelley
"Duvall" Duncan. Too scared to go to fight: Derek
Jeter * The Sultan Of Let Down Alex Rodriguez * The Shaved Emasculated Shell Of Johnny Damon * Jason Giambi * Mariano Rivera * Mike Mussina * Andy Pettitte * Phil Hughes * Joba Chamberlain * Ian Kennedy * C. Wang * Kyle Farnsworth * Billy Crystal
The Yankees and Chien-Ming Wang seem headed for
arbitration. “I expect there will be a hearing,” Brian
Cashman told me earlier today. “There have been talks but they haven’t been productive.” The Yankees submitted $4 ...
