The Yankee blogosphere and sports talk radio were abuzz prior to tonight's game. Brian Cashman joined the team mid road trip, a rare occurence. A line-up was posted that had Melky Cabrera in RF and Nick Swisher on the bench. Then the lineup was, as Walter Sobchak would say, unposted. Then ...
Poll: What was your favorite moment of the first half?
riveraveblues.com 7/16/2009 — Every year, there are certain moments in the season that remind us just why baseball is the greatest game on Earth, and this year is no different. Sure, lots of us take this silly game far too seriously, but that’s only because we love it so ...
Yanks hit well, pitch well, beat Braves
riveraveblues.com 6/25/2009 — Correlation does not imply causation, so it wouldn’t be accurate to say that Joe Girardi’s ejection is what fired up the Yankees. However, the correlation grows a bit stronger. During the very at bat in which first base umpire Bill Welke ...
Making the Grade - May
baseballdigest.com 6/6/2009 — The second marking period has come to a close and it was a heck of a lot better than the first one. An 18-11 record, included a 9-game winning streak, and put the Yankees in sole possession of first place for the first time since the 2006 season.

A Win Is A Win
fackyouk.blogspot.com 6/13/2009 — (Castillo picture from NY Daily News , all others via AP ) Well it wasn't pretty. It wasn't even something you're likely to see again. But a win is a win. And coming off three stomach punch losses against the Sox, an ugly loss to the Mets would have been far worse than a cheap win. The ...

The Yankees are Slumping
yanksgoyard.com 6/22/2009 — I feel the same way, A-Rod. Of course it's still all your fault.
This is not how it was supposed to go. The Yankees had a tough stretch of games against the Red Sox and Mets, but were rewarded with back to back series against bad NL teams. The Nationals have a chance to set the all time ...
Notes From Game 71
feedproxy.google.com 6/25/2009 — The Yankees needed a game like this.
It seemed grim in the beginning; the first 15 Yankee batters did not reach base. But then a Francisco Cervelli home run, followed by an Alex Rodriguez bases-loaded single started a Yankee rally in the sixth. A few more hits with runners in scoring ...
Looking at the Yankees on an Off Day
puristbleedspinstripes.com 6/29/2009 — The past two weeks have been not so much a Tale of Two Teams as it has a Tale of Two Offenses. Both weeks the Yankees pitched decently--certainly well enough that they could have won nearly every game they played--but in the first week of interleague, the team was undone by their offense. ...
Our long national nightmare is over - Yankees finally win!
subwaysquawkers.blogspot.com 6/25/2009 — It took a home run from an unlikely source - Francisco Cervelli, and a meltdown from Yankee manager Joe Girardi, but the Yankees finally won a game. Oh, and Mariano Rivera got to bat. And yes, Alex Rodriguez actually got a hit. I was out for a walk last night, listening to the game on the radio, ...
Gonzalez looks for a better role —
SFGate: Top Sports Stories 6/25/2009
Gio Gonzalez has undeniable talent and he has some eye-catching minor-league numbers, but a year and a half after he came to Oakland in the Nick Swisher trade, he has yet to find a regular role with the team. The left-hander was called up Wednesday ...
