Yanks for sale? Sure, why not.

Via The Daily News: Rumors are flying in Major League Baseball and New York banking circles that the family that has owned Major League Baseball’s premiere franchise since Cleveland shipbuilder George Steinbrenner purchased the club for $8.8 million in 1973 is exploring the possibility of selling the Yankees. Multiple baseball and finance sources told the [...]

Yanks lose again

CC Sabathia couldn’t hold the lead yesterday and the Yankees fell, 2-5, to the Reds in interleague action. The Yankees have now lost 6 of their last 8.  Middling is the word to describe the team to date, though inferior pitching, in particular, can be looked at as the primary reason for the recent “streak.” [...]

Andruw Jones still likes strippers

This happened in NYC, just hours after the Yankees dropped their second game in Toronto. He was a very nice guy, I must say. Seemed eager to get in there (even after this).

What do you think about Kuroda?

Hiroki Kuroda gave up 7 ER (5 IP 8 H 3 HR 2 BB 6 K) in the Yankees’ 8-1 loss to Toronto last night. With his latest performance, what do you think about Kuroda? I think he was a great signing (maybe a bit pricey) and bad starts happen (he was solid the previous [...]

Yanks Test “Depth,” Beat O’s 8-5

Thanks to a Mark Teixeira 2-run homer in the 7th inning, the Yankees beat the Orioles last night, 8-5.

Of the 4 beat-up Yankees, most concern is squarely focused on Robertson (rib cage soreness) [...]

Yanks sign Colon, could offer Pettitte $12M

When you don’t have enough pitching, just sign Bartolo Colon. That’s been the case, it seems, for the past few years and, today, the Yankees took on that meme, signing Colon to a minor-league deal worth 900k. Colon, a former Cy Young winner in 2005, also has the right to be released if he doesn’t [...]
