I thought this would be an interesting topic to talk about. What will the Yankees look like in 2014? I picked 5 years from now because I think its not too soon, and also not too faraway. I've thought about this topic for a while since the Yankees are extremely trigger happy when it comes to ...
YANKS Try to Get Something Started
yankees.gearupforsports.com 6/26/2009 —
Well it looks as if the Yankees may have finally found their bats…again. The past two nights have been a sincere joy to watch (sans Pettitte last night), and I feel that the confidence may be building like the over zealous arrogance of first place Red Sox fans. It has seemed like a ...
Is it Too Soon for the Yankees to Panic?
nyyankeesrumors.com 6/24/2009 — The Yankees have been playing sub-par baseball lately, and while they have plenty of time to bounce back, there are three other teams in the AL East posing some serious threats. First and foremost, the Red Sox are now five games ahead in the standings, and while that’s certainly not an ...
Yankees Start 2nd Half Strong
yankees.gearupforsports.com 7/20/2009 —
This time the Yankees were holding the broom as the Yankees swept AL Central leading Detroit Tigers. After Burnett held the Tigers to only 3 runs in the first game, and a pair of comfortably close 2-1 games, the Bronx Bombers find themselves once again only a single game behind the ...
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 ...
Yanks Meet the Mess (Postgame Notes 26 June 2009)
puristbleedspinstripes.com 6/27/2009 — Quietly, or perhaps not-so-quietly, it looks like the Yankees have begun to emerge from their June swoon. In the past three games, the Yankees have scored at least eight runs...and, while these games weren't necessarily laughers, given the timing of the scoring, the wins still count. Tonight, ...
Should the Yankees sign international free agent Gary Sanchez?
soxandpinstripes.com 6/19/2009 — If some of you don't already know, the international free agent period is when scouts sign players that will be at least 16 years of age by July 2nd. It's a chance for teams to improve their farm system with international players, mainly coming from the Dominican Republic and to a lesser extent ...
A Wild Week for the Yankees
yanksgoyard.com 6/15/2009 — It was an eventful six days for the New York Yankees in what amounted to baseball’s version of Rivalry Week. New York went up to Boston and lost all three, each defeat more heartbreaking than the last. The Yanks came back home to face their cross-town rivals and won a game they shouldn’t ...
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. ...
Breaking down the Yanks with runners in scoring position
riveraveblues.com 6/27/2009 — A topic which seemingly never fades from our collective conscience is the Yankees hitting with runners in scoring position. It’s an aspect of the game which seemed to plague the team throughout 2008, and we’ve seen them falter in those ...
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 ...
Yankees' Fate Remains Tethered to A-Rod —
Bleacher Report - MLB 6/29/2009
Alex Rodriguez stepped to the plate in the seventh inning Friday against the Mets and proceeded to pulverize an Elmer Dessens offering deep into the bullpen of cavernous Citi Field.
It was a raw display of opposite-field power by the three-time ...
