Tonight was a step in the right direction for a Yankees' team in desperate need of offensive production and wins. They finished the game with eight runs and won by four so in the box score everything will look dandy in a game where Joba Chamberlain looked more like the future ace than the young ...
All the pieces could be coming together
soxandpinstripes.com 6/29/2009 — Often times on this site we have talked about how Baseball has many twists and turns throughout the span of a 162 game season. It's impossible to know anything is for certain. The majority of predictions we make in the preseason will look foolish by November if we only went back and checked up ...
Yankees' trends, thoughts, and a Joba update.
soxandpinstripes.com 6/10/2009 — Above all, yesterday had to be the worst Yankees' game all season where the opponent didn't crack double digits. It's not often you see the offense shut down like that and you have to hope it won't set a chain reaction. My gut feeling is it won't, this offense is too deep with too many options ...
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. ...

Looking at the Yankees on an Off Day
puristbleedspinstripes.com 6/15/2009 — Once again, the semi-regular look athow the Yankees have performed thus far this season on an off day... Starting Pitching The starting pitching, which had gone through most of the month of May on an absolute roll, has struggled something of late. Part of the problem, it seems, has been ...
Yankees Relievers a Relief
nybaseballdigest.com 6/22/2009 — Over the past week, there has been a lot of buzz in the Yankees Universe about going after Huston Street, or Chad Quallis or Jose Valverde—or a reliever of any sort. In the past week, ESPN’s Peter Gammons mentioned that the Yankees should “look into a middle reliever.” On June 12th, ...
Why the Red Sox Have Beaten the Yankees
sportsofboston.com 6/22/2009 — I’d prefer to title this “How the Yankees have had bad timing against Boston.” Yes, it’s well documented that the Yankees have lost all eight meetings so far against the Red Sox. But, I think we need a further examination as to why the Red Sox have won all eight games to ...
Is this the renewal of The Rivalry?
soxandpinstripes.com 5/29/2009 — Let's face it, this rivalry hasn't been as intense since neither team lived up to the "Round Three" hype in the 2005 postseason. Boston backed up their first World Series in 86 years by not winning a playoff game for the next two years before winning another ring in 2007. The Yankees responded ...
Should Yanks Call Up Austin Jackson?
nybaseballdigest.com 6/25/2009 — Chuck Johnson of Dugout Central brought up this point.
Put Jackson in the everyday lineup and let him play. If he goes 0-4, yet wins the game with a great defensive play, he’s still performing at a level Cabrera and Gardner can’t. If he goes 3-4, pilfers a couple of sacks and scores a run ...
